True strength lies precisely in the courage that deters, the wisdom that prevents. This is the most sacred duty you have. A big thank you to your mothers, fathers, to those who gave this country the most, their children, who must protect and defend their Serbia. We live in a world where no one cares about anyone and everyone is just looking for how to get new territory. In such a world, we must preserve and defend our Serbia. We are too small to be able and to dare to threaten anyone, but we are brave and strong enough, we have you, to be able to tell everyone that we will not give up our Serbia. Every day you will have to work and learn a lot more. Thank you for all the love, dedication, for everything you give to Serbia. Let us help you have higher incomes, the best equipment\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-We will celebrate only our unity, but we will also show how much better equipped we are today to save our homeland than we were 26 years ago. Nobody can take away your knowledge! Long live the Serbian Army, long live Serbia &#8211; the president said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/jelena-47-iz-sela-kraj-topole-je-zena-zmaj-vozi-traktor-otvara-kapiju-i-vodi-farmu-sa-30-krava-foto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">JELENA (47) FROM THE VILLAGE NEAR TOPOLA IS A DRAGON WOMAN: She drives a tractor, opens the gate, and runs a farm with 30 cows!
