Form july 8th 2020 until july 16th 2020 people have been protesting on the streets of Serbia’s capital city Belgrade. An international television Deutsche Welle sent a reporter that didn’t have much knowledge on the topic and reported an unfinished story, so I just wanted to clear up the misunderstanding.
The protestors are protesting against the government and the president because they aren’t happy with the voting results and believe that the president mitigated the quarantine because it was the time of the year for voting and he didn’t want to reschedule it. I personally don’t think that that is true and that he mitigated the quarantine because the number if Covid-19 cases was decreasing and the strict quarantine wasn’t needed anymore, but now after the protest the numbers of Covid-19 cases has greatly increased.
In an interview with Deutsche Welle the reporter didn’t cover the story to the whole extend and ended up reporting just a tiny part, but in the second interview he explained the situation much better with a lot more detail.
