According to Stefanović, we are all proud of today's holiday which keeps alive the traditions of our armed forces, which have always stood by their people, even in the most difficult times, helping them and fighting for them.
  - Even today, when we are still fighting the coronavirus, your commitment and huge efforts made by all members of the defence system and all our partners, such as the “Serbian Railways”, the “Štark Arena” and other institutions, show that the unity of our military, doctors and people gives good results - said Stefanović.
 
The Minister of Defence thanked the awarded individuals for their hard work and pointed out that the recognitions awarded to them were the fruit of that work.
