Minister Vulin: As long as Vučić leads Serbia, Srpska may be calm
Defence Minister Aleksandar Vulin and President of Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik have visited today the Orao Ltd. company for production and overhaul in Bijeljina. Before meeting with the management of the company, Vulin and Dodik laid a wreath at the Memorial Room to the killed workers - fighters, in the company's premises.
As Minister Vulin pointed out, the Bijeljina-based Orao is one of the strategically important companies for the development of aviation in Serbia, and the Ministry of Defence knows it very well.

He added that the Bijeljina-based Orao, as well as the special-purpose motor factory in Pale and the Banja Luka-based Kosmos, can count on the full support of the Serbian Ministry of Defence that will always “make deals with companies from Republika Srpska in the first place.
- Republika Srpska can calmly and safely rely on us, the Ministry of Defence, the Serbian Government, and with full confidence to observe the policy of our president, Aleksandar Vučić, Minister Vulin said.
President Dodik thanked, first and foremost, all workers of Orao company for their “extra-human efforts” to preserve the factory.

- We have recognised that this also means our area. That is why we can enter into property and business relations together. Defence Minister Aleksandar Vulin is the biggest contributor to this, and I hope that we will quickly solve everything on this issue, the president of Republika Srpska said.

- The goal of today's visit was expansion of cooperation and investment in the factory. We have to keep it because it is a pearl in this region, and without the Republic of Serbia we would not survive. Today, Serbia is the largest customer, that is, the user of our services. I would like to mention that we are working for the whole world and make living on our work, director Prica said especially praising the factory workers who agreed that their salaries be delayed for one month in order to buy new equipment.
Orao Ltd. company for repair and production in Bijeljina deals with aviation-related activities. In addition to the important partnership with the Republic of Serbia, Orao, among other things, exports engines to the Indian, English and Italian markets.
