Vidovdan, a day heavy with history, suffering, heroism, and victories in Serbia, brought us a memorable speech from Aleksandar Vučić this year. The Serbian president spared no words while awarding honors to deserving individuals and institutions, reminding us that the key to our history lies in how much we are willing to love and sacrifice for our country. “When we knew the answers to these questions, we won. When we were confused, we lost, often heroically,” Vučić said, calling to celebrate life and continue winning. But while celebrations happen, Serbia faces serious problems — from extreme heat waves worrying the whole world, to ongoing street violence, and economic and social challenges pushing many to the edge of existence. The police are ready for the announced protests, but Vučić is clear: “We will not allow any violence.” Meanwhile, society struggles with addictions that choose no one, and doctors warn about the dangers of the hellish heat and advise how to prepare. Vidovdan is more than a historical date — it’s a mirror of Serbia’s present, with all its heroism and problems. So, how do you see the future? Time for more heroic victories or serious changes? Drop a comment, let’s see who’s for what!
