**Serbia’s Protests: A Turning Point for the Government**

According to Florian Bieber, an expert on South East Europe, the protests are not just about symbolic acts like resignations. They want real change in the system. What’s more, the protesters don’t have leaders who can be easily targeted by the government.
**A Stalemate Between Protesters and Government**
There is a standstill between the protesters and the government at the moment. Even the police are divided, as some officers have friends and family among the protesters. This means that President Aleksandar Vucic cannot rely on unreserved support from the police.
