He stated that the building is expected to be completed within three years, by the end of 2028, and will cover approximately 50,000 square meters.

Vucic emphasized that, in Banjica, near the Military Medical Academy, representative facilities of the Serbian Armed Forces will be built within a proper military and security environment, in line with the importance of the Serbian army.

He noted that the contractor is VGC and that significant funds have been invested in the project. The General Staff, he said, will be relocated from the city center, but this site will be where key decisions regarding the future of the armed forces are made.

The President also recalled that the first military airfield was established at this location 115 years ago.

"From the place where Serbia once took to the skies, today we are laying the cornerstone for a new marvel of the modern military," Vucic said, quoting Duke Zivojin Misic: “Life is an eternal struggle; those who know no fear move forward
