Pro-Russian rally in Belgrade
https://exit.al/en/2022/03/05/thousa...h-in-belgrade/
I was there yesterday. There was roughly 4000 - 5000 people. We started from the monument of Russian tsar Nicholas II towards the Belarusian and Russian embassies. Central part of rally was in front of Russian embassy. There was several speakers: Damjan Knežević from "narodne patrole" (a group of Serbian patriots who supervise migrants who are in Serbia in transit towards the west), Petar Dejan Zlatanović editor of patriotic portal Srbin.info, one Serb from Montenegro (surname Lekić, i forgot name) who is former Serbian fighter in Kosovo and has strong ties in Russia, one former Serbian fighter of Army of Republic of Serbian Krajina and several others. Among speakers there was no politicians, and as well there was no party symbols among people on rally. Some people had flags of Russia, Serbia, Novorossiya and Nemanjići (most important Serbian medieval dynasty), and Putin's photos. In the mass of people i recognized by speech several Russians (probably tourists), Montenegrin Serbs, Krajina Serbs, western Serbia Serbs and southern Serbs. I had an information from the first hand that the rally was broadcast in Donbas. Dejan Petar Zlatanović gave a very inspired patriotic speech and among others threatened with mass people's uprising against Serbian president Vučić (western puppet) if it continues to disrupt relations with Russia. Zlatanović among others also said "Serbian people doesn't have two chairs to sit on, there is only one chair - Russian chair." The people shouted slogans: "Russia, Serbia", "Putin, Putin", "Serbs and Russians brothers forever", "Kosovo is Serbia", "Vučić you are fagot" etc. Several Russian patriotic songs were played on the loudspeake (for ex. https://files.fm/f/64khd684y). From Russian embassy (employees) greeted the gathered people. After the Russian embassy most of people people headed to church of Saint Sava (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_Saint_Sava) to light candles for the innocent victims in Donbas and Ukraine in the previous 8 years.
Until arrival in front of Belarusian embassy it was quite cold. But in street where is Belarusian embassy it become noticeably warmer due to high concentration of people there. Towards the church of Saint Sava when the mass of people was diluted it got cold again. The rallies will continue until further notice, and with better (warmer) weather there will be more people.
