Thousands of demonstrators, primarily organized by student movements, gathered in Belgrade for a final protest ahead of Serbia’s upcoming national election. The participants are seeking to end the 14-year political dominance of President Aleksandar Vucic and his party. The rally served as a concluding show of force for the opposition-aligned youth movement, which has been active in criticizing the current administration's policies and governance style.

At the same time, President Vucic’s supporters held a separate, rival rally on the other side of the city. The simultaneous events highlight the deep political polarization currently defining the Serbian electoral landscape. While the student-led movement frames the upcoming vote as a critical opportunity for democratic change, the government maintains that its policies have provided stability and economic growth. The competing demonstrations underscore the high stakes of Sunday’s election, with both sides mobilizing their bases in the final hours of the campaign period. As the country heads to the polls, the tension between the student-led opposition and the incumbent government remains the central narrative of the election cycle.
