Air Force and Air Defence: "Objektiv" newspaper’s reports entirely false and malicious



Regarding the false reports published by the "Objektiv" daily newspaper, the Serbian Armed Forces Air Force and Air Defence would like to inform the public that Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence, Nebojša Stefanović, PhD, was never transported by an H-145 M helicopter, or by any other helicopter owned by the Serbian Armed Forces, to Homolje. The “Objektiv" newspaper’s reports are entirely false and malicious.

We would also like to point out that so far, the Minister of Defence has been transported by air exclusively for official purposes, and we remind you that orders are issued for all transports performed by members of the Air Force and Air Defence specifying precisely the assignments and persons in charge. We also note that Minister Stefanović was accompanied by persons from the Ministry of Defence and the Serbian Armed Forces on all flights, as well as persons whose transportation was dictated by the defence system’s needs.
