Summary/Abstract: The last year brought a high amount of disturbance and discontent to Serbia due to the Government’s plans to move forward with Lithium mining in the Jadar valley of western Serbia. Previously the plans were postponed after civil unrest and obstruction, yet after the ruling party won elections at the local and Republic level, the plans were reinstated.

There is controversy on several points, which complicates the situation.
