"A big meeting was held, a big meeting in Belgrade." Police say 28.000 to 29.000 people. An extremely large set. Those people are opposition oriented and I was always ready to hear what they think, how they think and what they think is important to do for our country. I believe that many more people think differently, so we have to listen to each other. That it should be some kind of value that we will show and some kind of different relationship in the future. And I say that here in front of the flag you see. This is the flag I carried in May 2024 when we defended Serbia in the United Nations General Assembly. And I would say we defended it quite successfully. Let's unite around the basic goals with the tricolor, so that all our quarrels and disagreements can continue," said Vučić.
