A big thank you to all of you, no matter which part of the security sector you work for. A big thank you to your families and to all those who are involved in protecting our homeland, Serbia - emphasized the Minister of Defence.

I think it is a great sign, so I congratulate all of you in the armed forces, the police, the Security Information Agency, and the Ministry of Justice. I hope the city of Kragujevac will build a nice kindergarten and school, everything that should be a part of this wonderful neighbourhood in Kragujevac and that you and your families will enjoy here. Congratulations to all of you. Long live Serbia, there is no surrender, no one will beat or defeat us - said Minister Vučević.
 
The mayor of Kragujevac, Nikola Dašić, said that it gave him great pleasure to be present at the ceremony where apartment keys were being handed over to the people who had dedicated their entire careers to protecting their country.
  - Until just ten years ago, no one could even imagine that a time would come when people, particularly people working at the security agencies, would be able to buy apartments at affordable prices. This shows how dedicated the President of the Republic, Aleksandar Vučić, and the Government of the Republic of Serbia are to building Serbia as a powerful state - said the mayor of Kragujevac.
 
Among those who have received the keys to their new apartments, after 16 years of waiting, is Major Nikola Luković.

- This is extremely important for me because I have bought a flat at the most affordable price on the market. I have bought a three-room apartment and I will share it with my wife and two children - said Major Luković.
