The forced labour in Kula camp is exhausting. We work long days doing extremely hard work at the Ekonomija farm about 1km from the camp.

🧵 This is how things stand. Europe is not united. Some circles in America are against the defeat of the Serbs and against the war against the Serbs. Some circles are completely for the destruction of the Serbs and we must constantly have this in mind.

Some countries in Europe are against the destruction of the Serbs, and some are for. Some are against our destruction, like France. Germany is completely for the destruction of Serbs. Soon we will have to explain this to our brothers in Serbia who do not understand us.

Some figures write: why would Serbia fight? They fought their wars a long time ago and they are sitting on their own graves in their own country, they don’t need a war. We must respond to this argument.

Firstly, ask these people why Britain entered the war in 1939 when Poland was attacked, since they are not related? And finally God forbid, had we given in, there would be no Serbia.

We are defending Serbdom, and we are defending Russia, and we are defending Serbia. We are defending her because this is our duty because she is ours , because we want to be Serbia, because in our hearts we have always been intimately Serbia.

🧵 We have used our victory to say to the international comm: we are not giving this, you can’t take the valley to the right of the River Una, you can’t take the Sana valley, you can’t take this part of the Vrbas which interests us, you can’t take this part of the Drina…

Now we will use this line of argument on the Brčko corridor. The corridor is a vital interest of the Serb people.

In Brčko we have never been a majority but always the third largest group. But we mustn’t only rely on the one principle of ethnicity and history, here we must rely on the principle of a new factor, that is the vital interest of the Serb people.

There is no debate to be had, the city of Brčko is not vital to the Muslims, but it is to us.
