Addressing the Friends of the Western Balkans on Alarming Threats Against Student Pavle Cicvarić
Regional Academy for Democratic Development has addressed the Friends of the Western Balkans network – a coalition of progressive political organizations, Members of the European Parliament, and individuals from EU countries committed to supporting democracy in the Western Balkans.
In our message, we emphasized that the situation in Serbia is worsening by the day, with the most recent escalation—public calls in regime-controlled media for the murder of student protest leader Pavle Cicvarić—crossing every red line. We underlined that our friends and allies are expected to use their influence and raise their voices in international forums, as the normalization of violence against students and citizens poses a grave threat to democracy.
We also expressed our gratitude for the continuous support of the Friends of the Western Balkans, both in the European Parliament and through their wider networks across Europe, stressing that their solidarity is invaluable for all those defending democratic values in Serbia.
