A colleague of the fallen pilot Omer Mehić, Saša Jovanović, said that he was protesting "Serbia against violence" came to seek justice for the airmen who died eight years ago in helicopter crash because someone wanted to promote himself that day and present himself in the best possible light.
"Six good people and one baby died." They didn't want to die, nor to become heroes, they just wanted to save one child that day, to return home and continue to be silent, anonymous heroes," Jovanović pointed out and added that they listened to the "wrong people" that day.
According to him, those "wrong people" wanted to become the heroes of that day, to stand in front of the cameras and present themselves as successful politicians and thus build a "shining political career".
"My colleagues did not return from the task, and the politicians stated that the system did not make a mistake and that there are no responsible persons," Jovanović pointed out and added that even that was not enough for those "wrong people", they accused his dead colleagues and transferred the blame to them. all responsibility, in order to "mention alcohol" at the end.
That dishonorable act speaks more about them, than about the fallen heroes, but the army has not forgotten the fallen heroes, said Jovanović, to which the gathered responded with "Vučić is leaving", and Jovanović with "it's time for him".
Abuse of the military for marketing purposes
He also said that the army is a serious system that should not be played with, and that "one group of people" uses the army and soldiers every day for their personal needs and personal promotion.
Jovanović said that patriotism is when, in one winter night, aware of all the risks, six brave people fight for one child, and that patriotism is certainly not that someone in that situation finds a chance to promote himself.
"It is patriotism to go public as a minister on the night a soldier is killed, admit your responsibility and resign, but it is certainly not patriotism if you hide behind your boss and wait in the dark for everything to settle down," said Jovanović.
Patriotism is not even when you go out and say to the camera "I don't give ministers" and reminded that eight years ago the same people who are saying it today said that.
"Eight years ago, our best medics and soldiers died, and they said that the system has no responsibility," said Jovanović in front of tens of thousands of people, and that "a month ago, our children started dying, and they still say that the system he didn't make a mistake and that it works."
