dw reporter oliver at is eve coverage, or very let's talk more about these protests they've been going on for months now and they seem to be getting bigger. what exactly are the protesters demand? that's right, david's. so the protests have been ongoing for months all across serbia. today it was just the latest protest in the central city of cub whereabouts. you know, students came from all over serbia, from different cities. they marched into the city and some of them even run marathons. some of them cycled so tens of thousands of people came to protest against the government corruption and to demand justice and accountability for the tragedy in the east side. so that is, that has been the main demand or by the students. and this is what they wanted to reinstate today. they were greeted by locals with food and drinks for singing petrie, artic songs. so it was very emotional. you could see images of people hugging students crying even so it was a very emotional day and it was a 15 hour block,

8 of the main boulevards and roads. and it ended with 15 minutes of silence to commemorate the victims. and the protesters were saying that this, this incident, this tragedy as a result of corruption in the government, particularly on the part of president alexander, of which is what is his response to the protest. that's right. so at the same time, while these protests were happening in a trap, where let's the president held the riley in another city. it was supposed to be initially in the software. the tragedy happened. but because people expressed concern and they were upset and angry about that. he actually switch did last minutes to another city, and there were reports, you know, that even people from the neighboring boston you and have to go when they came with buses to, you know, show their support for what each. but he's basically saying that, you know, foreign powers are influencing the protest in serbia trying to, uh, you know, through over throw the government as he's calling it. the color is revolution

without providing any evidence or saying who are these countries actually are. so right now he's also saying, you know, he's ready for a dialogue. see, once you know students to stop the blockades and sort of initiate this conversation with the government. and he's even mentioning a possibility of new elections. what and what are the chances of that happening so far? it seems like the chances are very low because uh, opposition parties of say have said that they, you know, with boy caught the new new elections because they blamed the government of irregularities during previous elections. so it's unclear but it seems very unlikely. now, serbia's been a n e u candidate for well over a decade. now, what is the you're saying about these protests and about these allegations of corruption? very little david, you know, the, the european union has a largely silent for the past several months. only now. recently in the past several days, we've heard something from the european commissioner for it. and large ment,

mazda costs a, she basically published an open letter saying that, you know, the, the serbian government should allow peaceful assemblies, but also opened a swift investigation into the tragedy. so, you know, so we're hearing some statements but not from top officials like, or still a funder line. uh so right now we're, we're still hearing very little. we've also heard russia saying for example, that, you know, west is trying to, over through the government. so a, we're hearing all these different statements from different countries, but students are saying they will continue locating the roads and protesting until their demands are met. w reporter oliverez eve coverage. thank you so much. i, or at least 15 people have been killed in a stampede at one of the main train stations and the indian capital daily. the crash happened as thousands gathered to board services to the my, how come hindu festival. the world's largest religious gathering attracts millions,
