Prime Minister Macut pays tribute to innocent victims in Kragujevac
Kragujevac,
21 October 2025
Macut, who laid a wreath at the Monument to the Executed Pupils and Teachers in Šumarice, emphasised that October 1941 forever marked the history of Serbia, as that was when the lives of children, workers, teachers, fathers and mothers were extinguished – innocent souls whose only fault was their love of freedom and their city.
Today we stand in Kragujevac, at a place where sorrow has become part of our national memory. As a man and as a parent, I cannot remain unmoved before this place of silence and pain. Each time I hear the names of pupils and citizens who were executed, I am reminded how fragile freedom is, and how precious peace, the Prime Minister said.
According to him, it is our duty never to forget and to teach our children that hatred brings no victory, only suffering – to fight for a Serbia that remembers but also forgives, a country that builds life, and does not destroy others’.
Eternal peace and respect to all the innocent victims of Kragujevac. Serbia remembers. Serbia is silent, but never forgets, Macut said.
