Serbian Prime Minister Milos Vucevic protested nationwide on the fatal collapse of the railway station.
Vucevic said he had adopted “to avoid further complicated things” and “not further exacerbating social tensions.”
In November, 15 people died, when the concrete crown of the railway station collapsed in the second largest city of Serbia, NOVI SAD.
The number of deaths has prompted a huge and continuous wave of protests across the country. Since then, thousands of people have embarked on the streets and demanded the responsibility for collapse and protests. They are said to have no supervision of construction projects.
More than a dozen individuals related to the Novi SAD incident were accused, including former Transport Minister Goran Vesic, who resigned a few days later.
Students led in protests, stopped traffic every day, and blocked universities for several months.
Last Friday, many Serbians stayed away from work because they called for a big strike. In December, it was estimated that 100,000 people participated in the demonstrations held in Belgrade. Many small protests have been held in cities and towns across the country.
On Monday, the tension was intensified. At that time, a female student was injured in the conflict between the opposition and the supporters of the council at the 24 -hour blockade at the junction of Belgrade, the most busy road of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia.
That night, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he would pardon allegations related to protests and announced a major government reorganization, saying that he hoped that more than half of the ministers would be replaced.
Vucevic is the leader of the Serbian Progressive Party and has been working for less than a year.
He used to be the Minister of Defense and reconstructed the project in the railway station, and served as the mayor of Novi Sad from 2012 to 2020.
Walchevich said that Milan Djuric, the mayor of Novi Sad, will meet the “most political requirements for the most extreme protesters” and resign.
The current question is whether the departure is sufficient to make most young people conduct regular and more detailed demonstrations.
The change of the government in charge is not as significant as possible, because the real power of Serbia lies in Vucic.
Vucevic is a trusted ally of the president-he hopes that he decides to resign from the Prime Minister’s decision to encourage protesters to “calm down and return to the dialogue.”
But this may also be paved with the parliamentary election.
Vucic has been pushing the idea of ”consulting the referendum” to his own role, saying that if he lost the vote, he would stand down.
However, it seems unlikely to have forces.
The ruling Serbian Progressive Party has a good organization-international election monitor pointed out that it dominates Serbia’s media space.
Just a year ago, it won the recent parliamentary election. In contrast, the opposition is still ruptured, and there are not many allies in the media.
The response of protesters may be crucial to what happened next.
If they are enough to see the Prime Minister’s resignation as a major development, the recent demonstrations may be similar to many of the previous anti -government movements.
If they decide to continue protest, Serbia’s turmoil may continue.
