Amidst the tensions, a protest in Belgrade, Serbia, which is considered to be the largest ever in this country, is expected to begin at around 16:00 PM. Thousands of students from various cities and villages in Serbia, as well as other protesters, are reported to be stationed in front of the Serbian Parliament, but also at Slavia, where there will be a stage, choir and speakers.

Despite students in Serbia organizing protests demanding accountability for the deaths of 15 people in Novi Sad, Albanian politicians from the Presevo Valley say President Aleksandar Vuçiq, will not resign.

According to them, today's protest in Belgrade is unpredictable and there may be clashes and intervention by police forces.

Former Albanian MP in the Serbian Parliament, Fatmir Hasani, in a statement for KosovaPress says the number of protesters could reach nearly a million, while not ruling out possible tensions. He emphasizes that this protest is an indicator for Vuçiq that this path is insurmountable for him.
