The situation in Serbia is much different than in Ukraine in 2014. In Ukraine there was a clear majority who wanted their country to join EU and finally break away from Russia. In Serbia, this isn't a pro EU or anti-Russia protest. Vucic and his cronies might be the most pro-EU party in Serbia. This is just people being tired of their corruption.

Unfortunately, vast majority of people in Serbia still blame the West for the terrible wars in the 90s and reject to accept any responsibility for their actions, including for the Srebrenica genocide. They are still sowing discord in the region and in Bosnia, Serbian separatists (fully supported by Vucic) have literally brought the country on a brink of another war.

Srebrenica genocide.

Is the Bosnian Genocide widely known in Serbia, or is it being denied?

As it was the main reason that led to the U.N. resolution, which requested NATO to take action in it's place.

I personally know a Serb that denies it, and then uses "NATO lied about Bosnia" to justify that "therefore we can't trust them regarding Butcha or Irpin, or NATO involvement in Ukraine."

It's frustrating as shit to listen to this guy. Also kind of crazy, because he's highly educated and actively works as a researcher, but still seems to have created a kind of information bubble for himself.
