Background
The jadarite mineral was discovered in a mine near the Jadar Valley by Rio Tinto in December 2004.[1] Rio Tinto was already given permission to explore the mines in July 2004 during Vojislav Koštunica's administration,[2] and in several documents that were signed later, its boundaries of exploration were extended.[3] The mineral was recognized by the International Mineralogical Association in November 2006.[1] In 2017, the government of Serbia signed a memorandum with Rio Tinto to implement the "Project Jadar" which would effectively give Rio Tinto total ownership to exploit mines near the Jadar Valley.[4]
In November 2021, the National Assembly adopted the law on referendums and people's initiative and modification of the expropriation law.[5][6] The law on referendum and people's initiative abolished the general 50% threshold that was needed for referendums to pass, and some politicians have speculated that it would be abused in cases such as Rio Tinto.[7][8] On 25 November, president Aleksandar Vučić signed the law, and he stated that he wouldn't repeal it.[9][10] The expropriation law was met with more opposition,[11][12] and it mostly gained negative coverage.[13] It was criticized by politicians, activists and lawyers, all of whom have called for its withdrawal.[14][15] Government officials have stated that the laws have nothing to do with Rio Tinto.[16][17][18]
Related protests
Environmental protests were held as early as in January 2021 by the Initiative "Eco Guard".[19] Protests which were dubbed as "Protests for Harmless Air",[20] were attended by a couple of thousand protesters.[21] Several professors and activists, such as Aleksandar Jovanović Ćuta, attended the protests which remained peaceful.[21]
Ćuta announced in March, that he and his "Defend the Rivers of Stara Planina" organization were planning to organize an "Ecological Uprising" protest on 10 April.[22][23] The protest gained popularity and around 60 environmentalist organizations in total participated in the protests.[24][25] It was held in front of the House of the National Assembly,[26] and it was attended by a couple of thousand protesters with a demand to suspend all projects harmful to the environment, as well as to adapt regulations to the highest environmental standards.[25][27] The organizations that participated in the protests also published a document with more demands for the government.[28] The prime minister Ana Brnabić criticized the protesters,[29] although she later affirmed that she was ready to discuss the demands.[30]
Timeline
11 September
The "Ecological Uprising" organization announced in mid-August that they would be organizing protests on 11 September in Belgrade.[31] Some opposition parties, such as the Party of Freedom and Justice, Democratic Party, People's Party, and the Do not let Belgrade drown voiced support for the protests,[32] including actors Svetlana Bojković, Seka Sablić, Petar Božović and other academics and public figures.[33][34][35][36] Nebojša Zelenović called for everyone to join the protests regardless of their political affiliation.[37]
Protesters gathered at the Pioneers Park in Belgrade around 2pm,[38][39] with demands for Rio Tinto to leave Serbia.[40] Protests were attended by a couple of thousand people.[41] During his speech, Ćuta stated their demands and he emphasized that they would block the road on Branko's Bridge, and if the mechanization appeared towards Loznica, they would start roadblocking across Serbia.[42] Besides Ćuta, Bojković, academic Nenad Kostić, professor Ratko Ristić, citizen of Gornje Nedeljice Zlatko Kokanović, and scientist Dragana Đorđević gave speeches.[41][43] Shortly after, the protesters walked towards Branko's Bridge where they blocked the traffic for two hours.[44]
Brnabić commented on the protests by saying that "ecology is a very important topic and that it is not clear to her why protests are happening when Serbia finally has a government that cares about the environment".[45] Deputy prime minister Zorana Mihajlović criticized the protesters by assessing that "the protests were used to promote individuals who want to make a political career through ecology".[46][47] Vučić compared the protesters to anti-vaxxers.[48] The Democratic Party has called the "Ecological Uprising" movement to distance themselves from a speaker that stated that Zoran Đinđić "criminalized the laws on privatization".[49] A day later, Ćuta stated that he considered the speech to be absolutely inappropriate.[50]
6 November
The next protest was announced for 6 November, and it was held in front of the building of Radio Television of Serbia.[51][52] A day before the protest, the drawn plan for the "Project Jadar" was released to the public by whistleblowers.[53] The Regulatory Body for Electronic Media (REM) allowed RTS to advertize Rio Tinto's messages regarding the project,[54] although the decision was met with opposition by 30 organizations that demanded that it be taken down because it allegedly violated the Act on Advertisement.[51] The protest was attended by several activists who demanded that RTS remove the advertisements of the project.[55] The protest remained peaceful.[56]
19 November
Another protest was held in front of the building of RTS on 19 November, although, this time the "Kreni-Promeni" organization planned the protests.[57] It was attended by a couple of hundred protesters,[58] and they demanded RTS to broadcast the anti-Rio Tinto advertisement.[59] RTS publicly denied to broadcast the video.[60]
22–24 November
On 21 November, the "Ecological Uprising" organization announced that they would be organizing protests in Makiš on the day when the construction of the Belgrade Metro begins.[61] Ćuta invited other opposition leaders to protest together,[62] which they accepted.[63] Besides the opposition leaders, activists and organizations also participated in the protests.[64] Protesters blocked the road at the construction sites for an hour, although no incidents were reported and they did not interfere with the workers.[64][65][66] Vučić labelled the protesters as "losers".[67]
A day later, the "Assembly of Free Serbia" called for protests to be held in front of the House of the National Assembly after they adopted the expropriation law and the law on referendum and people's initiative.[68] The protest was attended by a couple of hundred people, and it remained peaceful.[69][70] They demanded the government to repeal both laws.[69] Bojana Novaković also participated in the protests.[71][72]
Savo Manojlović, the campaign director of the "Kreni-Promeni" organization announced that they had sent a petition with 68,000 signatories that were against the referendum law, and over 200,000 signatories against Rio Tinto.[73] On the same day, protests were held in front of the Novi dvor,[74] in which thousands of protesters participated.[75][76][77] Manojlović was the main organizer of the protest, although besides him, actor Jelena Stupljanin, lawyer Božo Prelević, and farmer Dragan Kleut gave speeches.[78] The protesters requested from the government to repeal the referendum law, and chanted slogans against Rio Tinto.[77] Vučić commented on the protests by stating that the law had nothing to do with Rio Tinto.[79]
27–29 November

Shortly after the protests ended on 24 November, the "Ecological Uprising" organization and many others called for a protest to be held on 27 November where they would be roadblocking major roads across Serbia for two hours.[80][81][82] The "Kreni-Promeni" organization announced that they would be roadblocking the Gazela Bridge as well as a bridge in Novi Sad,[83][84] while other organizations and protesters blocked roads in other major cities across Serbia.[85][86][87][88] Organizers had called the police to stand by their side,[89] although during the protests the police blocked the demonstrators and police brutality was present at the protests.[90][91]
It was reported that thousands of protesters were seen across Serbia where they chanted anti-government and anti-Rio Tinto slogans.[92][93][94] The demonstrators demanded the same as previously stated,[95] and they blocked roads for an hour.[96] Several demonstrators were arrested during the protests, and it was reported that masked men attacked demonstrators.[97] A violent incident in Šabac gained the most attention, where unknown people tried to drive through a group of demonstrators with bulldozers, although one protester managed to stop a bulldozer.[98][99] The demonstrator was detained soon after,[100] although two days later he was released from custody.[101][102] Numerous incidents and detentions also took place,[103][104][105] where armed hooligans and pro-government activists, including a Serbian Progressive Party MP, attacked the demonstrators.[97][106][107]
The "Assembly of Free Serbia" and main opposition parties demanded for detainees to be freed,[108][109] and some called for the armed hooligans that attacked demonstrators to be detained.[110] During the protests, the governing populist Serbian Progressive Party (Serbian Cyrillic: Српска напредна странка) held a solemn party assembly,[111] where some of the attendees were allegedly positive to COVID-19.[112] Vučić spread misinformation that only 120 citizens had blocked the Gazela Bridge,[113] and claimed that the demonstrators attended the protests to disturb the peace,[111] while Brnabić compared the protests to "unseen destruction and fascism" and threatened the citizens with criminal charges.[114][115] Internal affairs minister Aleksandar Vulin also criticized the protests,[116] and stated that "the protests have nothing to do with environmentalism" and called for the police to use violence.[117][118][119] Miloš Vučević claimed that the armed hooligans were not sent by SNS.[120]
Two more protests were held a day later in Belgrade.[121] They remained peaceful and were attended by a couple of thousand citizens of Belgrade,[122] and they demanded the release of the demonstrator that stopped a bulldozer.[123] Deputy mayor Goran Vesić criticized the protests by saying that "a minority harassed tens of thousands of people during the protests".[124]
SNS organized a counter-protest in Šabac on 29 November in support of the pro-government activist that rode the bulldozer.[125] The protest remained peaceful until two observers were beaten up by SNS activists after they asked them if they are against Rio Tinto,[126][127] one observer who chanted anti-SNS slogans was later chased by a group of men, although the men ended up capturing the wrong person,[128] and one photographer was beaten up and his equipment was stolen.[129][130] On the same day, protests were held in Loznica and the demonstrators demanded that if the president does not withdraw the laws, they will roadblock the entire Serbia.[131]
4 December
Leading organizations called for protests to continue until the demands were met,[132] and shortly before the protests began, they announced that roads in over 50 cities would be blocked.[133][134][135] Manojlović called for nonviolence, and he stated if the provocateurs arrive, the protesters should withdraw.[136] A group of lawyers also voiced support and participated in the protests.[137][138] A day before the protests took place, police broke into a house of a citizen who called for protests,[139][140] and a non-existing citizens' association "Lila revolucija" (lit. 'Lila revolution') called for people to go out to the protests and to throw purple paint buckets to mark cars that are trying to block the traffic.[141][142] Their message was mostly spread by government-associated media.[143][144] Non-governmental organizations called for the police to protect journalists during the protests.[145]

Protests across Serbia were attended by tens of thousands of demonstrators,[146] while the Gazela Bridge in Belgrade was roadblocked by a couple of thousand demonstrators.[147][148] The protests remained peaceful, although some incidents occurred in Belgrade and Novi Sad.[149][150][151] In Novi Sad, multiple incidents were reported during the protests,[152][153] while in Belgrade a group of men held torchlights in front of the protesters.[154][155] Pro-government activists attacked demonstrators in Novi Sad.[156][157] It was reported in a video that a police officer in civilian clothes tried to arrest film directors Goran Marković and Maja Lalić in Belgrade,[158] while a journalist was attacked with pepper spray in Novi Sad.[159] Serbian diaspora also held protests in the New York City, Berlin, Paris and London.[160][161] Following the protests, some demonstrators were charged with misdemeanor.[162]
Following the protests, the organizers stated that the protests were successful and they proclaimed a "great victory for the citizens".[163] Multiple ministers criticized the protests as a "terror on citizens",[164][165] while Brnabić stated that the protests had nothing to do with environmentalism.[166] During the protests, Vučić visited Gornje Nedeljice (the village in the proximity of the planned lithium mine) where he held a press conference.[167] Vučić stated that he was willing to propose amendments to the expropriation law.[168]
11–14 December
Lead organizers of these protests, Manojlović and Zelenović had a polemic during the Utisak nedelje show, which was held on 5 December.[169] Zelenović, who heads the Green-Left coalition, expressed support for the expansion of the demands, while Manojlović opposed the move because, as he stated "the story would be diluted", and he compared the move to the 1 of 5 million protests which failed due to this move.[170] Two days later, Manojlović asserted that the protests won't end until the demands get met.[171] On 8 December, during the "Morning Program" on RTS, actors Marko Grabež and Nedim Nezirović voiced support for the upcoming protests.[172][173] Following the announcement that Vučić withdrew the expropriation law and amended the referendum law, Manojlović controversially declared the "big national celebration" and called for a celebration to be held in Belgrade.[174] Manojlović overturned his statement a day later, and he stated that "we cannot trample on the word we have given" and that no one should have monopoly over the protests.[175][176] Other leading organizations stated their support for the continuation of the protests.[177][178] On the day of the protests, Vučić stated that "all wishes of the protesters have been fulfilled".[179]
Organizations announced that roads in 50 cities would be blocked,[180][181] and over 40 organizations participated in the protests.[182] Manojlović and his "Kreni-Promeni" organization did not participate in the protests.[183] After the two main demands were adopted by the government, the protesters continued to demand Rio Tinto to leave Serbia.[184][185][186] Although this time, the protests were only held for an hour do to rain and bad weather.[183] The protests mostly remained peaceful, with some incidents happening in Belgrade and Niš.[184][187] In Belgrade, a group of right-wing and anti-vax activists participated in the protests,[188] and a group of pro-government activists waved pro-Rio Tinto slogans.[189] Serbian diaspora also held protests in Brussels,[190] Prague, Washington, D.C., Berlin, New York City and London.[191][192] During the protests, Ćuta affirmed that "the protests won't stop until Rio Tinto leaves Serbia".[193]
Following the protests, minister Mihajlović stated that Ćuta supports "a violent change of government" and is "abusing environmentalism for the election campaign".[194][195] A day later, protests were also held in Zrenjanin.[196][197] On 14 December, a few hundred of high schoolers protested in Čačak against Rio Tinto.[198][199]
Response and reactions
Support and opposition
The government of Serbia's decision to support Rio Tinto's investment, alongside the adoption of the modified expropriation law was met with fierce opposition from environmental activists, academics, geologists and non-governmental organizations.[200][201][202][203] Actors voiced support for the protests,[204][205] and some of them even participated.[206][207] Bojana Novaković was one of the most prominent actors who participated in protests in Belgrade.[208][209] Bishops Grigorije Durić and Fotije Sladojević voiced support for the protests,[210][211] including former president Boris Tadić,[212] while Patriarch Porfirije called to "end the fight".[213] The presidency of the right-wing populist Serbian Movement "Dveri" participated in the protests in Niš,[214] and the Serbian Party Oathkeepers,[215] Liberation Movement,[216] and League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina also voiced support for the protests.[217] The president of the Democratic Party of Serbia Miloš Jovanović stated that he strongly condemns the violence that took place on 27 November, and that "it turned out to be disastrous when the government neglected democratic procedures".[218]
According to an opinion poll that was published in early December, around 14% of Serbian Progressive Party adherents supported the protests,[219] while a majority of respondents also supported the protests.[220] On 4 December, Novak Đoković and Prince Philip of Yugoslavia stated their support for the protests.[221][222][223] Emir Kusturica,[224] Darko Perić,[225] Vladimir Vuletić,[226] Nevena Ignjatović,[227] Mihail Dudaš, Milica Mandić, Jovana Preković, Ratko Varda,[228] Tamara Dragičević, Sloboda Mićalović,[229] Nikola Mijailović,[230] Mirko Ivanić,[231] Vujadin Savić,[228] and Ognjen Koroman also stated support for the protests.[232] Professor at the Faculty of Law in Belgrade commented that the government committed three illegal offenses related to the protests,[233] and on 11 December dean Ratko Ristić voiced his support for the protests.[234]
The president of the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media (REM) Olivera Zekić stated that "everyone who protests should be arrested",[235] while the president of the far-right Serbian Radical Party (SRS) Vojislav Šešelj voiced his opposition to the protests by saying that the "blockades are being directed from outside [of Serbia] and that these are not environmental protests".[236] Nebojša Krstić threatened the "Kreni-Promeni" organization by stating that "they should practice jumping from the bridge".[237] Deputy mayor of Čačak Aleksandar Maksimović stated that "there are people who are ready to get in their vehicles and drive into the crowd".[238] Vladimir Đukanović criticized the protests and stated his support for Rio Tinto.[239] Bratislav Jugović, a SNS MP, stated that the "protests are justified", but, as he says, the "fact is that Đilas and his clique are abusing them".[240]
Government response
On 29 November, Vučić stated that he would wait for his legal team's opinion before signing the expropriation law,[241] and following the protests on 4 December, Vučić stated he would propose amendments to the expropriation law, which would enter the National Assembly by an urgent procedure, so that it could be adopted before the New Year.[168][242] Vučić announced on 8 December, that he decided to withdraw the expropriation law that was sent by the National Assembly and to amend the law on referendum.[243][244][245] He also stated that "all environmental standards are met now regarding Rio Tinto" and that further-held protests are only "political protests".[246][247] On 10 December, the National Assembly adopted the amendments for the law on referendum.[248]
Aftermath
In mid-November, Ćuta announced that the "Ecological Uprising" movement would participate in the upcoming elections,[249] and on 14 November he signed an agreement with Zelenović's Together for Serbia party to participate on a joint list in upcoming general election.[250][251] Their coalition was polled at 9% on the national-level and 13% in Belgrade.[252]
