When you turn towards Belgrade, a monument that speaks of us in the sky is not rising in the most beautiful light.

Monument “Eternal Fire” is located in the Friendship Park at the confluence of two great rivers Sava and Danube. It was built in 2000 in memory of the victims of the NATO bombing. Apart from the verses of Branko Miljkovic, there was a plaque on this monument, which included the 19 NATO member states that bombed Serbia.

Very soon after the installation of the monument, the panel with the countries of the countries that inflicted evil on Serbia, as well as the four large lights that were lit by the large Obelix were stolen. Also, the eternal flame that was glowing in a small house next to the monument was also extinguished, namely the gas installations that kept the flame in their lives. Since then, the monument has been neglected both by authorities and citizens.
