Troskot calls a state of emergency in Karlovy Vary: 'For the first time in history they have run out of water'

Zvonimir Troskot, a member of the Croatian Parliament representing the Most party, called for a state of emergency in Karlovac due to severe disruptions in water supply, stating that the city has for the first time in its history been completely without drinking water. He criticized the local and county authorities for failing to ensure reliable water service, pointing out issues such as murky water, inadequate water reserves, and questionable testing methods. Troskot emphasized that the lack of electricity alone could not explain the crisis and accused the local government of lacking expertise and clear plans to manage the system. He also called on Prime Minister Tomislav Šarić's deputy, Tome Medved, who hails from Karlovac, to take responsibility, arguing that the issue goes beyond local infrastructure and affects public health and safety.

Troskot called for a state of emergency in Karlovac because of the water supply

Saborski zastupnik Mosta Zvonimir Troskot u Karlovcu je predstavio situaciju nedostatka vode za piće, tvrdeći da je grad u potpunosti ostao bez vode prvi put u povijesti. Troskot je kritikovao neefikasan rad tvrtke Vodovod i kanalizacija, navodno zbog prekida električne energije i praznih vodosprema, i zahtijevao uključivanje stručnjaka, izgradnju novih vodocrpilišta i jasno utvrđivanje odgovornosti. Kritika se usmjerila na političku zaštitu umjesto stručnosti, s naglaskom da je problem više nego lokalni i uključuje zdravstvene i sigurnosne aspekte.
