“Dear citizens who celebate Kurban-Bayram,

Surrounded with your loved ones and friends, welcome Kurban-Bayram in happiness and good health. Use these days to enrich the spirit and strengthen universal values, and let the symbol of the sacrifice be the message to all to invite each other to give a personal contribution to a better society and community.

Montenegro absorbs its strength from the harmony of coexistence and co-operation. Mutual understanding and respect are the basis on which every society and civil state should be built.

Preserving these values of Montenegro, values of peace and unity, we will be better prepared for the challenges ahead of us.

Let this big holiday bring good health, love, happiness and spiritual peace to you all.

On behalf of the Parliament of Montenegro and on my own behalf, I wish you a happy Kurban-Bayram."

Mr Ranko Krivokapić
