Christmas Greetings from the Minister of Defence



I extend the most cordial greetings on the occasion of the celebration of the Birth of Christ – Christmas, to all Orthodox Christian members of the Ministry of Defence and Serbian Armed Forces.
 
Throughout centuries this happiest holiday was one of the foundations of preservation of religious and national identity in this area. Our ancestors honouring the ancient customs at the same time preserved a part of something, which is for us, their descendants more than necessary to protect and safeguard ourselves, our home and family and our homeland.
 
Honouring God and tradition of our forefathers, we are growing stronger and more resolute to resist those who want us to be weak, who mind our independence and our desire to decide independently about ourselves.
 
I wish you a lot of God’s blessings, peace, health, happiness and success in your work and to share the joy of the celebration of the holiday with the closest ones.
 
Mir Božiji – Hristos se rodi!
Minister of Defence
Aleksandar Vulin
