On Monday, Serbia's Construction Minister Goran Vesic announced his resignation following the tragic roof collapse in Novi Sad. Last week, a train station roof in the northern city of Novi Sad gave way, resulting in the deaths of 14 people.
In a live broadcast, Vesic stated, \"Tomorrow morning I will officially submit my resignation as minister of transportation, construction and infrastructure to the prime minister of the Republic of Serbia.\" The incident has raised concerns over construction safety standards and oversight within the country.
As investigations continue, the government vows to implement stricter measures to prevent such tragedies in the future. Vesic's resignation marks a significant step in addressing the public's outcry for accountability in the wake of the disaster.
