Activist Aleksandar Milanovi\u0107 compared the tragedy in Sarajevo to the tragedy in Novi Sad, in which 16 people were killed when a canopy collapsed at the Railway Station:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce again, the same pattern, where systemic negligence and corruption took a young life, and on a section of track that did not have an usage permit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHigh school students and university students have taken to the streets. They are marching and protesting against crime, ethnonationalism, and corruption,\u201d Milanovi\u0107 said, sending a message to the citizens of Sarajevo: \u201cWe want them to know that we share the same struggle. That we share the same anger, but also the same hope that a different kind of society is possible. A society in which lives are not lost due to negligence and corruption. A society in which accountability is not an empty word.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19832\" src=\"https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8.png 1920w, https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8-250x141.png 250w, https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8-700x394.png 700w, https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/yihr.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Vilina-vlas-govori-o-kulturi-secanja-8-120x68.png 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ognjen \u0106iri\u0107 program assistant at YIHR Serbia said that the tragedy in Sarajevo concerns all of us: \u201cThe tragedy in Sarajevo did not affect just one city \u2013 it affected all of us who know what everyday life looks like, how an ordinary day can change in a second.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cToday we stand here, in Belgrade, but we are not speaking from one city to another.
