Dačić delivered a fiery speech at the celebration of the Gendarmerie Day in Belgrade, praising this elite unit as the unshakable pillar of Serbia’s internal security. On the eve of Vidovdan, a day deeply rooted in Serbian history and tradition, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Internal Affairs emphasized that the gendarmerie is not just a police force but a symbol of the Serbian people’s struggle, honor, and freedom. “You are the modern guardians of the security and dignity of the Republic of Serbia,” Dačić told the unit members. The event took place at the diving unit base in New Belgrade, attended by high-ranking officials including Police Director Dragan Vasiljević.
But let’s be honest — how much do we really know about this “elite” unit? Is the gendarmerie truly an unbeatable force or just another part of the state apparatus that loves to boast? Dačić put on a spectacle, but what’s really going on behind the scenes?
Vidovdan, a day symbolizing centuries of struggle and suffering, is now the day to celebrate the power and strength of the gendarmerie. Is this just patriotic rhetoric or reality? Either way, it’s clear the government counts on this unit as a pillar of internal stability. But is that a reason to celebrate or to worry?
If you thought this was just another boring state ceremony, think again. This speech and event are a perfect example of how power and patriotism mix into one explosive cocktail. So, what do you think? Is the gendarmerie truly a security guarantee or just another political tool? Drop a comment and let the people’s voice be heard!
