BELGRADE (Reuters) - Thousands of people rallied peacefully in downtown Belgrade on Saturday to protest over an attack on an opposition politician and demand policy changes by President Aleksandar Vucic and his ruling Serbian Progressive party.

Under the slogan "Stop the bloody shirts," the demonstrators chanted as they marched through the city centre to condemn the assault on Borko Stefanovic, leader of the small Serbian Left party.
