One hundred days, four requests - zero responsibility

Citizens who demand that Serbian institutions do their job are being led to students 100 days since the tragedy in Novi Sad were marked on the streets of several cities in Serbia.

Under the slogan "Let's trample on the Gazelle, because you trample on justice", Belgrade students blocked one of the busiest bridges in the city for seven hours.

In Novi Sad, three intersections were blocked on Sunday, while in Niš, a blockade of the "Niš-sever" toll plaza was organized.

Students from Kragujevac ran a relay marathon to the Temple of St. Sava in Belgrade to personally deliver an invitation to their Belgrade colleagues to join them in the protest that will be held on February 15 in Kragujevac, on the National Day.

From Slavija to Autokomanda

Perseverance, combativeness and hunger for justice among students is not waning. Although many were initially skeptical that there would be a dissipation of energy and enthusiasm among them, this did not happen. And everything seems that it will not

The biggest protest so far was held on December 22 in Slavia, when about 100.000 people gathered.

According to the Archives of Public Meetings, more people gathered at Slavija and in the approaching central Belgrade streets than there were around the Assembly in the most critical moments on October 5, 2000.

The holidays and a long winter break followed, which many students spent sleeping in college classrooms. Instead of clubs and cafes, they filled the streets for New Year's Eve.

Then there was a big blockade of Autokomanda on St. Sava.

Eight hours after the beginning of the blockade, the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, said that all the demands of the students would be fulfilled in the following days. The call for dialogue, truce and return to the student benches did not, however, bear fruit.

In parallel with the blockade of Autokomanda, a group of students was attacked in Novi Sad, and one girl was broken in the jaw with a baton by young men who came out of the premises of the Serbian Progressive Party.

The next day, while the students were hurriedly cleaning Autokomanda, the news arrived: Serbian Prime Minister Miloš Vučević resigned.

Fall of the Government
In addition to Miloš Vučević, the mayor of Novi Sad, Milan Đurić, also resigned.
With the resignation of the prime minister, the government is in a technical mandate until the election of a new government composition or until new elections are held in Serbia.

The opposition calls for the formation of a transitional government, which they call the only effective solution to the political crisis.

Numbers and predictions

101 days have passed since the roof collapsed in Novi Sad. A total of 84 faculties have been blocked for a little over two months.

There were so many protests, tributes and blockades that any attempt to accurately count them would be sloppy and futile.

The Center for Investigative Journalism (CINS) reported that there have been more than 50 attacks on students since the protest began, including being run over by a car, beaten with a pole, punched, kicked.

In the shadow of these attacks, constant calls for dialogue come from the president of Serbia, along with tempting offers - such as favorable loans for apartments. Or offers for dialogue with the Rector's College, which was wisely rejected.

Then followed a series of threats to lose the condition for student loans, budget places and rooms in the dormitories. To that, the students say - you are not in charge.

They stay focused on their 4 requirements, well known to everyone.

One hundred and one days have passed since the tragedy in Novi Sad. And there is an answer - zero.
