According to her, it is difficult to say where these earthquakes will happen, but as she says, there are areas in Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, and even in eastern Serbia where there were no earthquakes for many years.
She told Telegraf.rs that Croatia should not expect a stronger earthquake than the one that hit it yesterday at 6.3 on the Richter scale, and that such an earthquake is not expected in the vicinity, but that this earthquake is another proof that the cycle of strong earthquakes in the Balkans has obviously begun.
"Why is this happening? Because the seismic activity on the Apennine Peninsula had several strong Italian earthquakes. The seismologists said then that this seismic activity would surely spill over in the Balkans where there were no strong earthquakes for many years, especially in that coastal part where the last one was in Montenegro in 1979. So, after that, there was Albania which also did not have strong earthquakes for many years. Then seismic activity started near Zagreb, with two strong tremors yesterday, and this earthquake today near Petrinja", Slavica Radovanović, former director of the Seismological Institute of Serbia, and now director of the company seismo.sr, stated.
