While the Turkish, Hungarian, and Georgian governments are facing fierce
resistance, Serbia is no exception to the growing revolutionary anger in
the East. A symbol of state corruption and public procurement, the
collapse of the Novi Sad train station canopy last November caused the
deaths of sixteen people and sparked an unprecedented mobilization in
the country, led by students. Access to construction site documents,
release of arrested protesters, an end to police violence, and early
parliamentary elections; Aleksandar Vucic's government remains deaf to
the movement's demands and has chosen to respond with escalating
repression: arrests, police violence, surveillance, intimidation,
provocations, and more.
While the Serbian people's struggle for justice and truth has
undoubtedly shaken Europe for ten months with historic demonstrations
and nationwide blockades, the military and industrial interests of
Western nations are underscored by their silence, while independent UN
experts are finally warning at the beginning of August of the ongoing
human rights violations.
At the dawn of a new wave of social protest in our own country, our
support goes to the Serbian people and their exemplary uprising against
a capitalist government whose "corruption kills."
