在获得自由后，我们想给我们的人民一些激进的东西：一个正常、运作良好的国家。两年前，我毫无政治野心。我是诺维萨德技术科学学院的一名学生，在我的家乡攻读人力资源博士学位，只是过着自己的生活。直到2024年11月，诺维萨德新翻修的火车站雨棚倒塌，造成16人死亡。我参加了针对这一震惊事件的街头抗议和集会，和其他许多人一样，意识到这必须成为一个转折点。
After freedom, we want to give our people something radical: a normal, functioning state Two years ago, I harboured no political ambition whatsoever. I was a student at the faculty of technical sciences in Novi Sad, my home town, pursuing a PhD in human resources and simply living my life. That was until the canopy collapse at the newly renovated train station in Novi Sad in November 2024, which killed 16 people. I took part in street protests and rallies in response to this shocking event, and like many others, realised that it needed to be a turning point.
这不是一场不可避免的悲剧。系统性腐败和根深蒂固的有罪不罚文化是倒塌的明显因素。但当局没有下令进行全面公正的调查，也没有就官方失职坦白从宽，反而开始因为我们要求正义而打压我们。我们被污蔑、在街头遭到袭击，但执法部门无动于衷。于是我们躲进讲堂和学校，在院系大楼内设置路障，做好了长期抗争的准备。诺瓦克·西明是塞尔维亚“学生名单”运动的成员
This was not an unavoidable tragedy. Systemic corruption and a culture of entrenched impunity were obvious factors in the collapse. But instead of ordering a full and impartial investigation and coming clean on official failings, the authorities began pushing back against us for demanding justice. We were vilified and attacked in the streets but law enforcement did nothing. So we took refuge in our lecture halls and schools, barricading ourselves inside faculty buildings, ready for a long haul. Novak Simin is a member of Serbia’s Student List movement
