Thousands attend the Pro-Serbia government rally after months of riots

Tens of thousands of Serbian President Alexandar Vucic took a rally in Belgrade during the months of unrest throughout the country.

A monitoring organization said about 55,000 people gathered before the National Assembly. Despite some Vucic followers traveling from neighboring countries, attendance was significantly lower than the huge anti-government protest last month.

There are regular demonstrations in Serbia since November when the collapse of a Shed at the railway station in the town of Novi Sad 15 people were killed, provoking widespread public anger.

A number of Serbians have accused the incident of suspected corruption and cutting the angle by Vucic's progressive party.

The Serbian leader had raised a rally on Saturday as the launch of Movement for People and the State, which would “save” Serbia from forces working to “destroy” the country.

In a speech of the event, he called on prosecutors to work to restore order and peace.

He claims that the protests led by students threaten the peace and stability of Serbia, accusing those present of being paid by “foreign intelligence agencies”.

“Some foreign forces cannot seek to see free, independent and sovereign Serbia,” he said, without clarifying which “powers” he has in mind.

Vucic also criticizes the national television operator, describing it as a “key participant” in an attempt at a “color revolution”.

Following the incident with Novi Sad last November, some accused what had happened in more than a decade of government by Vucic's progressive party – which was closely linked to the previous repair of the station.

It was considered a key part of the government's leading infrastructure project – the high -speed line from Belgrade to Budapest in Hungary.

The demonstrations that followed the disaster saw that the attendees were using the “corruption killing” slogan.

They claim that the opaque public procurement procedures that the government uses for infrastructure projects has enriched several preferred contractors while at the same time at risk of public safety.

Despite many resignations – and Vucic's insistence that he has nowhere – the protests were increasing.

Last month, hundreds of thousands of people descended into the capital of Serbia.

An independent monitor calculates that 325,000 – if not more – have gathered, which makes it the biggest protest in Serbia so farS
