Novi Sad

Novi Sad is a city in Serbia where significant anti-corruption protests have taken place. These protests, led by university students, have been ongoing for over a year and are directed against what the students perceive as endemic corruption during the presidency of right-wing nationalist Aleksandar Vucic. The city is newsworthy due to its role as a focal point for these demonstrations, which involve thousands of participants. The students are demanding measures such as banning corrupt officials from politics and investigating their wealth. While a related student protest and clashes with police occurred recently in Belgrade, the capital, Novi Sad remains a key location for the sustained movement against corruption in Serbia. The events highlight the ongoing political tensions and the active role of students in challenging the current government.
