At the end of November, we published an article to describe the social
movementunderway in Serbia against a lithium mine of the multinational Rio Tintoin the Jadar Valley. Initially a local mobilization of villagers and farmers, itquickly took on national proportions. While the government lied to the populationabout the impact studies carried out and adopted laws to facilitate theexpropriation of the inhabitants and inhabitants, the people took direct actionto defend the territory against extractivism and its impacts on ecosystems, waterand soils. Every week, massive blockages of roads, bridges and highways tookplace in different places across the country. People had to face intenserepression. They and they also had to practice the popular self-defense in theface of organized attacks by armed far-right hooligans and plainclothes police onthe blockades. The struggle seemed hopeless in the small corrupt state with boneand poorly regulated capitalism, outside the European Union. Some specialistsalso referred to it as "Europe's trash can"... The Serbian government seemedready to remove all the environmental standards that would be in the way of theproject valued at 2 billion euros. Against all odds, the audacity of the Serbianprotesters got the better of not only the bill on expeditious expropriations, butalso the Rio Tinto project in Serbia!
