Serbian Parliament President Ana Brnabic claimed that the canopy of the Novi Sad train station, which collapsed on November 1 last year, killing 16 people, collapsed “as the beginning of a color revolution.”
What did Brnabic say?
“I don’t believe that the tent collapsed on its own, nor was it an accident, a tragedy, or any kind of negligence in this matter. I think it was a planned distraction,” she told Pink Television.

Analysis:
Ana Brnabić’s claim that the collapse of the canopy in Novi Sad was a “planned diversionary tactic” to trigger a color revolution is disinformation. There is no factual evidence or official report to support this claim. Official investigations classify the case as a negligent accident.
Marinika Tepic, deputy chair of the Party for Freedom and Justice (SSP), responded to Brnabic’s claims on Monday.
“Ana Brnabic, like every progressive, knows no shame. Only someone without a shred of morality, honesty, and intelligence can claim that the collapse of the tent was a diversionary tactic to trigger a color revolution,” she said of Brnabić’s statements on the television station “Pink.”
She said that the “fiction about the canopy collapse” was uttered by the President of the National Assembly, Ana Brnabic, in consultation with the Serbian President, Aleksandar Vucic.
More than ten months have passed since protests broke out in Serbia, demanding accountability for the railway station canopy collapse that killed 16 people.
So far, Serbian Prime Minister Miloš Vučević and Novi Sad Mayor Milan Đurić have resigned in the wake of the protests. /The Geopost/
