He claimed that the Sava Bridge, when it was built, had no value, neither cultural nor historical.

“It was a steel bridge built by the Germans to transfer heavy weapons. It is true that the old master removed the mines, not because he was bored and because the bridge was beautiful, but because he could not cross to the other side of the river. Due to a combination of unfortunate circumstances, that bridge survived for 80 years and we are lucky to have removed it earlier, “Šapić said.
