He spoke about the importance of Air Serbia to the country and said that the company was also going through a restructuring process.

“Each country supported their national company … Let me remind you, when the crown began, how much it meant to us to have our own planes, not only to return Serbian citizens who were located in various countries, but simply those planes that we they brought medical teams from China and other countries. We will not allow our national company to fail. I will remind the Fiscal Council and the citizens of Serbia that from the moment we partner with Etihad, Air Serbia is positive, not negative, not lost. .. It is positive until last year, “Mali said in a statement to Tanjug.
