President Vučić stated that ensuring peace, safety, and security of citizens requires the engagement of all state bodies in what has been established as the highest priority – preserving peace and stability in the country.President Vučić emphasised that important topics for Serbia include Expo, infrastructure, healthcare, energy, education, and science, and noted that for every country, one issue is of particular importance – the armed forces.
- I will visit all factories within Serbia’s defence industry in order to address their problems. I want you to know that our warehouses are currently full due to the suspension or reduction of ammunition exports, primarily as a result of internal pressures. I am not concerned about external pressures telling us not to export weapons or ammunition. As a consequence of that, our workers are now facing difficulties with salary payments. I will personally visit these factories, we will make certain changes to procedures, but we will have to change some other things as well – President Vučić said.
