U Novi Sad 20 intersections will be blocked for 30 minutes on Tuesday (May 30). This civil action was organized with the aim of exerting pressure on the competent institutions, so that, in accordance with the law, they would urgently announce elections for local community councils.
Last Tuesday (May 13), the first one was held blockade.
Although it was announced at the time that it would last 15 minutes, due to the prolonged detention of activists from Novi Sad, the protest lasted twice as long.
The organizers point out that the reason for the new gathering and the actions of the President of the Assembly of Novi Sad, Dina Vučinić, who they claim took the side of the thugs in front of the premises of the Serbian Progressive Party and thus showed that she does not respect the law and the constitutional order.
"The reason for the reunion is the fact that the President of the Assembly of Novi Sad, Dina Vučinić, by siding with the thugs in front of the premises of the SNS party, has clearly shown that she does not want to perform her function in accordance with the law and the constitutional order, but is solely in the function of the protector of the regime," stated the citizens' assemblies, as reported by 021.
Collapse of institutions
It was emphasized that citizens no longer want to remain silent in the face of the collapse of democratic principles, human rights and institutions that are financed from public funds.
"Ms. Vučinić has already stepped deeply into the destruction of the constitutional system, and is committing a serious criminal act," they say.
It was also announced that the intersections will be blocked in two segments - the first 15 minutes as a sign of the request to call for elections, and the next 15 minutes in support of the six detained political activists who have been in prison for two months.
