Thousands of people gathered in Belgrade on Saturday December 30th for the largest demonstration ever recorded in the country against alleged fraud in the December 17th parliamentary and local elections. The protest was organized by ProGlas, the Serbian movement in support of democracy, which is challenging the results that showed Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic's party won a landslide victory. “Thieves!” the screams that could be heard during the demonstration.
The main opposition coalition, Serbia Against Violence, has denounced numerous irregularities, including the fact that ethnic Serb voters from neighboring Bosnia were allowed to vote illegally in the capital. International observers also reported irregularities, while several Western countries expressed concern about the electoral process.
