President Vučić at the Modernised Stellantis Factory Ceremony

 

Upon arriving at the factory, President Vučić was welcomed by Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares and other company representatives. They presented him with a new model of the electric vehicle, the Fiat Grande Panda, in which the president took a ride. 

 

 

Emphasising his high expectations for the success of this model, President Vučić remarked that this is a great day for Serbia because it symbolises the joint success of the country and Stellantis in the quest for accelerated progress. 

 

 

“Today is a big day for us and our country. I am happy because I see that we have all succeeded together. This car is the product of our collective effort. Today, as we showcase this beautiful car, we are already preparing for the next model. Our battle for the next Fiat Grande begins today. We must change ourselves and learn to embrace changes, and not simply wait and adapt,” said President Vučić. He added that in the next two to three years, Serbia will strive to meet all the conditions in order to welcome the next model of this electric car.  

 

 

President Vučić also urged citizens to be gracious hosts, collectively demonstrate a patriotic spirit, and respect the products and efforts of our workers.  

 

 

“I respect and love you, dear workers. Your country has done everything possible for Stellantis to be here, to stay, and to plan for the long term. I ask that you represent the interests of your country in the best way possible, as this will help attract other investors. Let’s fight and work together, let’s change ourselves, and let’s change our Serbia,” said the president during his address.
