- Military education will continue to develop and our idea is to invest more money and more attention in military education, and this year we will be able to say that we will have a greater number of enrolled students, departments and appropriate courses that we will provide for them and, in that way, we will meet the needs of the Serbian Armed Forces, but not only of the Serbian Armed Forces, because every boy and girl who graduated from the military high school, and of course after that, the Military Academy, is very supportive and helpful to our entire country. Every investment in the Serbian Armed Forces is an investment in the standard of every citizen of this country, the Minister of Defence said.He emphasized that by raising the quality of life of members of the Serbian Armed Forces, we raise the quality of life of every citizen of this country.
- I wish every parent to know that when they send us their children to the high school or academy, they will be educated, live and work in accordance with the highest possible standards. They will also have the best accommodation, the best food and the best professors and all the opportunities to get quality education, to advance and become proud of their military and their country. We continue to invest; this year we have allocated about 300 million dinars for the Military Academy, for the Military High School - only for this first phase - more than 30 million dinars has been allocated and there will be no shortage of money when it comes to the standard and quality of life of our children, Minister Vulin said.
