Serbian President Vučić Launches New Political Movement at Counter Rally

Facing ongoing protests over corruption, Vučić seeks to unify supporters while alleging foreign interference in Serbia's unrest.

Aleksandar Vučić held a large counter rally in Belgrade, announcing the formation of a new political movement aimed at revitalizing the country and fostering national unity.
The rally featured support from regional allies, including Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who emphasized external threats to Serbia's sovereignty.
Vučić accused the ongoing mass protests, sparked by the fatal Novi Sad infrastructure collapse in November 2024, of being driven by foreign powers seeking to destabilize Serbia.
The protests, which have persisted for months, continue to draw significant public participation, with demonstrators demanding accountability for corruption and mismanagement.
Vučić's new movement seeks to appeal to workers and farmers, positioning itself as a force for stability and resistance against perceived foreign meddling.
