Students from numerous places in Serbia arrived in Belgrade, on foot and by bicycle, to the protest held on Saturday, March 15. A reception was arranged for them in the capital
Students of most Belgrade faculties and numerous citizens welcomed student cyclists and walkers who walked and biked to the capital for several days to participate in the Saturday protest.
Cyclists were the first to cross the red carpet that was laid on Terazije, shortly after 19.30:XNUMX p.m. They were welcomed with fireworks, and they also received medals.
The same route, around 22 p.m., was also followed by students from Nis who, led by a "tamic", walked 193 kilometers from the Manasi monastery in the vicinity of Despotovac to Belgrade in six days.
A column of students from Vršac, led by a tractor, arrived at Terazije after them.
A little before 23 p.m., students marching from Novi Sad and Subotica also arrived.
They were followed by students from western and central Serbia arriving at Terazije, followed by the last group of students from Kragujevac.
Central Belgrade streets around Terazije and from Terazije to Slavija were blocked for traffic.
Red Cross tents and student units of medics have been set up on Trg Republike where help will be provided to students who will need it after several days of walking to Belgrade.
Students from Niš, Jagodina, Kragujevac, Čačak, Užice, Loznica, Subotica, and Novi Sad went to the capital of Serbia on foot and by bicycle.

The list of government threats to students in the blockade is only expanding - criminal charges, accusations of violence, violation of the law, mistreatment of women... But they receive nothing, RTS does not work normally, and the police do not react. Is it proof of the state's impotence?
