Belgraders clean Pioneer Park

Less than 24 hours after the Student List's electoral victory, residents of Belgrade gathered in Pioneer Park to dismantle the remnants of a pro-regime camp that had occupied the space since March 2025. The cleanup was seen as a symbolic act of rebuilding trust in institutions and moving forward as a nation.

Pioneer Park's political significance

Pioneer Park is located in the heart of Belgrade, at the foot of the Presidency and city hall, facing the Parliament. It had been occupied since March 2025 by a pro-regime camp known as "Čacilend," which became a symbol of resistance against the Student List's political movement.

Camp's security and presence

The camp was enclosed by barriers and restricted to pedestrians by the police. It was inhabited by masked individuals dressed in black, who were prepared to defend the regime and confront journalists or citizens who approached the area.

Symbolic end to the camp

On Sunday evening, after Aleksandar Vučić, former president and leader of "Serbia United," accepted his electoral defeat, citizens entered the park to dismantle the camp. They removed and burned tents, taking pieces of fencing and chairs as symbolic trophies of their victory.
