Opposition and authorities on citizens' protest in front of the TV where Vučić was a guest in Čačak
The City Committee of the opposition party Serbia Centre (SRCE) in Čačak assessed today that the police cordons preventing citizens from approaching the local TV station where Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić was a guest "are not a symbol of support for the president but of fear of the people". The ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) in Čačak announced that "only a few dozen idle idlers" had gathered in front of the local TV.
TL;DR
- The opposition party SRCE in Čačak believes police cordons during President Vučić's visit signify fear of the people, not support.
- The ruling SNS in Čačak described protestors as idle individuals engaging in disruptive behavior.
- SRCE stated Vučić's visit to Čačak did not alter public opinion on the ruling regime's 13-year governance.
- SNS highlighted positive investments and economic stability in the Lučani municipality during Vučić's visit.
- Around 100 citizens protested, with police preventing them from approaching the TV station where Vučić was a guest.
- Protestors attempted to breach police cordons as Vučić left but were unsuccessful; the protest ended without incident.
