Serbian university students embarked on a remarkable 1,300-kilometer bicycle journey to Strasbourg, France, to garner EU attention for their ongoing protests against corruption in Serbia. Supported by hundreds upon their arrival, the students aimed to highlight the nation’s dwindling democratic values as Serbia pursues EU membership. Their efforts symbolize a grassroots movement striving for justice and accountability amid political backsliding. This initiative serves not only as a demonstration of solidarity but also as a significant statement calling for EU engagement in Serbian democracy and an end to corruption.
I think that this protest action is a full success, one of the cyclists said in a live N1 TV broadcast from Strasbourg where people gathered. I think we have woken up Europe.
Around 80 students who set off on bicycles 13 days ago on a journey to Strasbourg, France, were aiming to draw EU attention to their monthslong protests against corruption in the Balkan nation.
