Anyone knows much about the Serbian election?
Back when the protests started I heard it's an astroturfed color revolution attempt ultimately aiming to break Serbia's ties with Russia.
I read their "Student Plan", it's very liberal, some points are fine like housing support for young couples and people in underpaid industries like education and healthcare; free schoolbooks for all children, cheap medicines, restoration of rural clinics, forcing permanent contracts after 12 months employment etc.
But anti-corruption and free media points I feel might be there to get rid of politicians who don't bend backwards for EU through selective lawfare and enforce EU line in the media simply by the power of money.
It seems everyone is jumping at the opportunity to take lead in Serbia right now. The Students' party won the parlimentary election, and the EU seems to be eager to work with Serbia now.
Accidentally wrote this in last week's thread. As for Balkan libs, they tend to be extremely pro-EU. Blindingly, even.
could you please just say balkan, no need to add dehumanising suffixes
Thank you comrade, I was not aware. I'll be more careful in the future.
i think because of the leaderless nature of the movement, there is a lot of unknowns for the future. of course it is likely that EU interests become dominant, as they have the most influence, but there is some potential for left organising too.
at least, my yugoslav comrades are quite hopeful
I think it is a mostly genuine movement that will be co-opted due to its anarchistic undertones. Their "plan" isn't horrible its just founded on idealism. I think the cia was much less hands on than color revolutions in Ukraine, Georgia, etc.
I think they have realized chaos is the best they can get out of color revolutions so they have stopped investing the time and energy trying to build them into anything of substance.
