Upon signing the decision on the dismissal of Gasic today, the Prime Minister thanked him on very good results achieved in increasing the combat readiness of the Serbian Army and in boosting the military industry, but underlined that the words he used in a public speech cannot and must not be repeated in the future.
The Prime Minister authorised Minister of Finance Dusan Vujovic to perform functions of the defence minister until a new minister is appointed.
The Serbian government set aside €500,000 for children of Syria that will be released at a donors' conference in London on 4 February through UNICEF.
