After inaugurating the maternity hospital in Pasjan, Serbia’s Prime Minister, Aleksandar Vucic, held a speech in front of the gathered population. Once again, he could not refrain from nationalist statements. “Kosovo is the cradle of Serbia. We will never forget Kosovo. We, as the government of Serbia, will continuously engage to create as many jobs as possible here, as well as a well-being for Serbs,” said Vucic.

He asked Serbs not to sell their properties at any price, because, according to him, selling would mean displacement of Serbs. He also appealed to them to give birth to as many children as possible. He concluded his speech with “Long live Serbia,” which was followed by ovations of those present.
