Unity as foundation of Serbia’s national strength, survival

Kruševac, 28 June 2025

Prime Minister Professor Đuro Macut, MD, DSc, laid a wreath today at the Monument to Kosovo Heroes in Kruševac and delivered an address at the state ceremony marking the St. Vitus Day national holiday and the 636th anniversary of the Battle of Kosovo.

Macut emphasised that everyone must know and remember that St. Vitus Day is the day when Serbs placed the defence of the homeland above all particular interests, embedding both Serbia and themselves into eternity.

On this St. Vitus Day, even more resolutely than in previous years, we must recall that the Kosovo Covenant is in fact the articulation of a people’s ethical choice – a choice that owes its historical salvation and survival to a national ethical commitment to the collective over the individual, to unity over personal interest, to the national over the particular – in every decisive moment in which the destiny of our people was determined, he stated.

The Prime Minister added that Serbia’s key national institutions must be founded precisely on the principles of unity and the readiness to sacrifice the personal and fleeting for the sake of the enduring and state-building.

Unity, not social polarisation, is the most important St. Vitus Day message that our ancestors have passed on to us through the centuries, Macut said.

Today, I call upon all our people for unity and brotherhood. I call for the defence of Serbia and its institutions, and I call for peace. Long live the Kosovo Covenant, that proof of our worth and beacon towards the freedom and justice of our people. Long live eternal Serbia, the Prime Minister concluded.

Earlier, Macut chaired a special government session at the City Hall in Kruševac.
