Before perhaps the biggest protest in the history of Serbia, the president of the republic visits the Expo
On the day when in the capital Of Serbia maintains, as expected, one of the largest protest in the history of the country, the government pretends that everything is fine.
President of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić and the Minister of Finance Sinish Mali they visited the Expo construction site on Saturday (March 15) in the morning and said that he wants a Serbia that is building, progressing and winning.
The president said that Serbia will win today and always.
"People dream different dreams. I want a Serbia that is being built, a Serbia that is progressing, a Serbia that is winning. Serbia will win today and always," Vučić announced on Instagram.
"We are at the Expo, over 1.800 workers are here at the moment. The expo is on my right, and behind me is a residential complex, hundreds of trucks and thousands of people who are working hard and building our Serbia," Vučić pointed out.

He stated that people have different dreams and that some dream of tearing down something and someone, while others dream of building.
"I believe that most of Serbia wants to build a better and successful Serbia. I am convinced that even today we will withstand all pressures, all attacks, and I believe that we will preserve peace and stability, and then build and win in the future, just as we raised Serbia from the ashes 13 years ago, so that we raise Serbia to unimagined heights and be the fastest growing economy in Europe. Serbia must not stop, long live Serbia," said Vučić.
Although some collectives have decided that classes in Belgrade high schools will start again from Tuesday, the students are not giving up on the blockades. The President of the Forum of Belgrade Grammar Schools, Ana Dmitrijević, says that teachers will enter the classrooms tomorrow - but most likely in empty ones.
RTS employees gathered in the "Our Protest" initiative demand the immediate publication of the names of the responsible editors who make decisions about the content of the program during the blockade of the building. They are also looking for an answer to the question - why is the majority of the editorial staff completely excluded from work?
IKEA denies rumors that it donated anything to "students who want to learn"
In the previous days, an account with the name Đura Matsuta appeared on social networks. The order is fake, the Government announced, because the new Prime Minister of Serbia does not have one. Is that to be praised or condemned, given his political function
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?
Anyone who condemns the regime's targeting of people from the media, the non-governmental sector, the opposition and universities, must not agree to this targeting of RTS editors and journalists either.
The government of Đur Mazut is "counter-revolutionary", focused on retaliation and state and street violence against opponents of the regime
Depriving Dejan Ilić, an intellectual with an impeccable life and work biography, of his freedom, without the slightest meaningful reason, is just one of the brutal indicators that the regime has turned against its own citizens and is entering a phase of terror
