On Tuesday, a grand celebration was held in Serbia on the occasion of the opening of the Pakovraće-Pože section of the Miloš Veliki highway.
The ceremony was attended by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and Serbian Parliament Speaker Ana Brnabić, Minister of Internal Affairs Ivica Dačić, as well as Albanian Minister Demo Berisha, who is President of the Serbian Progressive Party, and other cabinet ministers.
The guests enjoyed the rich meal and the trumpeters, while in the footage published on the network, Vučić is seen relaxing with a glass of beer.
What is striking is that the Serbian president was particularly pleased with the song 'King Petra's Marching Guard', which he sang with joy and followed the rhythm with his raised fist.
Vučić also seems deeply moved by the song with Chetnik motifs 'Morem plovi jedna mala barka', which also contains the lyrics: "The mother sent her son to search/ then report to General Drazha/ Uncle Drazho, where is my child/ he is being protected from Serbian bayonets."
As this song, which echoes the Yugoslav army despite the massacres it committed in Bosnia, Croatia, and Kosovo, played, Vučić took out his wallet and generously handed the musicians money.
Meanwhile, the 19.5-kilometer-long Pakovraće-Požega highway segment that Vučić inaugurated runs through the hilly areas between Čačak and Požega. This section of the road has 35 bridges with a total length of 5,196 meters, numerous overpasses and three tunnels, two of which - Munjino brdo and Laz - are the longest on highways in Serbia.
The construction was financed by the Serbian government through the Ministry of Infrastructure and the main contractor is the Chinese company China Communications Construction Company.
