Vucic: I am proud of Serbian army's progress

BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Tuesday he was proud of the progress of the Serbian Armed Forces.

Those who have destroyed the army now view its progress "with envy and malice," Vucic told reporters in a comment on a statement by opposition politician Zdravko Ponos about investments in the military.

He said Serbians looked with pride upon the growth of the army's capacities and the strengthening of its combat readiness.
