Aleksandar Vučić, the Serbian president, offered to hold a public debate with protesters against the government, which the student representatives declined unless elections are called. Vučić emphasized the need for democratic dialogue rather than violence, referencing recent protests that turned violent. The students argue that a president who uses violence cannot engage in a democratic debate. They demand early elections, while Vučić's term ends in 2027. The collapse of the Novi Sad train station roof last November triggered protests, with several arrests made but no accountability from the government yet. Teljes cikk (Telex.hu)
