On behalf of the Ministry for Inter-Community Relations and in my personal capacity, allow me to extend sincere congratulations to all members of the Serbian community living in the country on the occasion of the celebration of Saint Sava, the national holiday of the Serbs in the Republic of North Macedonia, stated the Deputy Prime Minister of the Government of the Republic of North Macedonia and Minister for Inter-Community Relations, Mr. Ivan Stoilkovic, in his congratulatory message on the occasion of Saint Sava, the national holiday of the Serbs in the Republic of North Macedonia.

The life and legacy of Saint Sava are embedded in the foundations of spirituality, education, and philanthropy and represent universal values that for centuries have connected the peoples of the Balkans, contributing to mutual respect, understanding, and coexistence.

Guided precisely by these values, the Republic of North Macedonia remains firmly committed to the advancement and protection of the rights, identity, and cultural expression of all communities, as well as to strengthening mutual trust, dialogue, and shared European values.

In this festive spirit, I wish you to celebrate the holiday in peace, health, and dignity, guided by the values promoted by Saint Sava, according to which a person is valued by their deeds and their contribution to the community. Happy January 27th, Saint Sava, the national holiday of the Serbs in the Republic of North Macedonia!, emphasized Stoilkovic.
