Students announced a new protest today. The gathering will begin in front of the Ministry of State Administration and Local Self-Government (Birčaninova 6) at 11 a.m. In a post on Instagram, the youth stated that the ministry is hierarchically above the local self-government units, and it is created without jurisdiction, so they will repeat their objections and demands regarding the irregularity of voter lists.
Once they have done that, they will head to the Plateau in front of the Faculty of Philosophy, where the protest rally will begin at 12 noon. There they will announce the actions for today. Previously, the students announced the radicalization of their rebellion.
On Monday, a group of young people organized a blockade of Nemanjina and Knez Miloš because the Ministry of State Administration and Local Self-Government refused to open the voter lists due to suspicions of irregularity of the elections, which was stated before by local and European organizations that observed the elections and later expressed doubts about their regularity.
After the Ministry announced on Monday, the organizers also submitted a request to the local self-governments for inspection of the voter lists, for which the deadline was given until today at noon.
Nikola Ristic, one of the organizers of the youth protest, told "Vreme" on Monday during the blockades that if someone organizes violent actions, clashes with the police, anything that can be classified as violence, people should know that these people are not with them.
On Monday, the road blockade lasted for about seven hours.
