I just came across a post talking about this and I haven't seen it anywhere else. Anyone wanna talk about it? It seems big. There seem to be really many protests right now in Serbia.

On 1 December, a silent march was held in Novi Sad to commemorate one month since the collapse. By early December, Serbian students had begun organizing 24-hour blockades at some school campuses. By mid-December, more than 50 university campuses and multiple secondary schools had suspended classes due to student protests. On 11 December, students demonstrated at the headquarters of television station RTS, for their broadcasting of President Aleksandar Vučić's claims that demonstrators are being funded by Western countries who seek to destabilize Serbia. On 13 December, farmers in central Serbia blocked a road with tractors. As of December, protesters continue to gather in large numbers, demanding justice for the victims of the collapse and greater transparency in governance. Police presence in the city has been significantly increased, and there have been sporadic clashes reported. Efforts at dialogue between protest leaders and government officials have so far failed to de-escalate the situation.[citation needed]
