- All the members of the Serbian Armed Forces are assured, ready, stable and capable of preserving our peace and our everyday life. Even in the days of holidays, the Serbian Armed Forces perform their tasks and the Serbian Armed Forces are the guarantee of our stability and our freedom. Today, I wish that we all think of all those who are not with their families. Today, I wish that we think of all members of the Serbian Armed Forces, of all members of all security structures, all those because of whom we say that this day as well is passing peacefully and that the days in front of us will be the days of peace and freedom. Secure and stable Serbia, secure and strong Serbian Armed Forces are guarantee that the Serbs, regardless where they live, will always be protected, that they will be looked after, that their rights will be respected, and that our freedom will be preserved – Minister Vulin said.
 
The minister reiterated that all the Serbs, wherever they lived, should know that a stable, free and secure Serbia was a guarantee of their survival and a reason for all of us to rejoice in the future.
