"Desetine hiljada razočaranih Srba protestvovalo je u subotu u Beogradu na najvećem antivladinom miting u Srbiji do sada.
Policija procenjuje da je bilo 70,000 ljudi. Demonstranti koji su stigli iz cele Srbije skandirali su "Demokrate napolje!, Gladni smo! i druge povike."
BELGRADE (Reuters) - Tens of thousands of disenchanted Serbs protested in central Belgrade Saturday in the biggest anti-government rally in years aimed at showing opposition strength ahead of scheduled 2012 elections.
A pro-European Union coalition has governed Serbia since 2008, but persistent economic hardship and frustration with slow EU integration has left many disgruntled with the government.
"This government was promising us milk and honey in 2008 and what do we have now? More hardship, and a dishonest and arrogant government which does not care about its own people," said Zdravka Stanojlovic, 44, a Belgrade waitress.
The rally was organised by Tomislav Nikolic, head of the Serbian Progressive Party, the most influential opposition party shown in polls as offering a strong challenge to the current ruling Serbian Democratic Party.
Police estimated that 70,000 attended the rally.
"I was not a Nikolic voter in the past but now I am so disillusioned because of unfulfilled promises, poverty, corruption and hardship," said Dragomir Djuric, 56, a metal worker, who had travelled to Belgrade from Kragujevac.
Protestors, some of whom arrived by bus from cities across Serbia, gathered in front of the national parliament holding banners including: "Democratic Party, time to go" and "We are hungry" Police closed off parts of central Belgrade to accommodate the demonstration under sunny skies and a break in recent bitter winter cold.
Nikolic's party, one of several at the protest, is demanding early elections, higher wages and a crackdown on corruption in the EU applicant country. "If they don't respond to our demands, we will start continuous protests from April," Nikolic told Reuters ahead of the rally.
