Protesters gathered across several Serbian cities on Tuesday to rally against the country’s government and the election of Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic as the next president.
Initial rallies were held on Monday, when crowds gathered near the Serbian parliament building in the capital a day after the country’s presidential election. Social media organizers and opposition claimed there were voting irregularities and rigging, while crowds chanted calling Vucic a “thief.” Crowds continued to gather, assembling near the Parliament, the Republican Election Commission and the Radio Television of Serbia.
Thousands of people took to the streets of Belgrade, Novi Sad, Kragujevac, Kraljevo, Subotica and several other major cities, shown by live feeds on the organizers’ Facebook page, called “protest against dictatorship.”
