VICE PRESIDENT of the Main Board of the Serbian Progressive Party, Aleksandar Šapić, said that it would be seen from a distance how important the moment we live in is and how much political history is being written today, which, as he says, is personified by the President of Serbia and SNS Aleksandar Vučić.

At the presentation of the program principles of the SNS, Sapic said that Serbia today is a country that is economically stable, militarily stronger, diplomatically highly respected, a country that after a long time has friends in both the west and the east and is able to communicate with to those with whom he disagrees.
– Today, Serbia is a country that has a president who is respected in every part of the world, respected by those with whom he does not agree, and a country that after many years has managed to become a true leader in this part of Europe – said Sapic.
According to him, the program principles that the SNS has have originated from the real policy pursued in the last few years.
– You can like the SNS or not, you can respect Vučić or not, you can support the SNS policy or not, but you cannot but state that the creation of a completely new Serbian policy, the creation of a modern Serbia is underway, and that the creator of that of politics and modern Serbia, the president of our state – Aleksandar Vučić – he emphasized.
As he stated, the Serbian Progressive Party showed that it had the strength to constantly regenerate and respond to the challenges of the times.
He points out that Serbia today pursues an independent policy, strengthens the army, not to attack someone, but to dispel the thoughts of others that they can attack it easily and to be a factor of stability.
In that sense, he states that the Open Balkans initiative shows the opposite of how the enemies are trying to label Serbia and say that Serbia wants bad relations with its neighbors.
– But, also, for the first time in our history, we have no problem saying that we will take care of the Serbian people wherever they are – he said.
Šapić states that there are still many things and challenges to which they will be exposed, but that in the last year, the policy that Vučić is creating has given results for which, for the first time in history, we have proof that it makes sense.
The first proof is the confrontation with the corona virus pandemic in terms of good cooperation with partners in both the east and the west, and the second proof is yesterday’s agreement between President Vučić and Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding the price of gas for Serbia.
– Thanks to the policy we pursued, thanks to personal relations, state relations, we managed to reach something that is a question of whether the closest Russian friends on whom they depend will succeed – said Šapić.
He pointed out that it is important to maintain relations with all major powers, while taking into account their interests and independence, and stated that foreign investments can help us because, as he explained, a country that has its businessmen in our country will not go against them. , although he does not agree with us on all issues.
Šapić expressed his satisfaction and pride that he is a part of this generation, that he is a contemporary of President Vučić and that he shares with his party colleagues the responsibility to continue with this policy.
– If we manage to continue this year, for another 10 years – to strengthen economically, geopolitically, demographically, I think we have a great chance to put Serbia in a place from which it cannot deviate – he said.
He added that then it will depend only on the speed with which, as he said, we will move on our path, and that is the European path, which does not mean that we will not continue to maintain friendly relations with Russia, China and other world countries.
Šapić adds that it is first of all necessary to look after their own interests, the interests of their people and says that if they never forget to protect the interests of the people, he is sure that in a period of 10 years Serbia can set out on a path from which it cannot deviate. , as he states, they left their descendants in a far better condition than they inherited.
