In Serbia and Hungary, groundswells of youthful energy topple entrenched governments
World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported59m ago
Following years of peaceful anti-government protests, populist right-wing leader Aleksandar Vucic conceded defeat late on Sunday in Serbia after a groundswell of youthful energy and tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in Belgrade and other cities.
The protests, which capped two years of calls for the populist ruler to step down, led to the defeat of entrenched leadership. Residents in Belgrade had previously faced prolonged disruption, including being blocked for over a year from entering a prominent park nestled between Parliament and Vucic's offices.
In the wake of the defeat, Serbia now awaits to see how the student-backed leaders will govern the country, marking a significant political shift following the mobilization of youth and the broader public against the established administration.
