We invite all colleagues from non-governmental organizations, citizens, owners of companies and employees in these compandies, state institutions’ employees, accordance with their capabilities, to contribute to the recovery of landslide in the Valley of Heroes where there is ossuary and monument honouring heroes in the Battle of Sutjeska.

Citizens should cherish the legacy of the nation-liberation battle against fascism as one of the fundamental values on which contemporary Montenegro also rests.

Tjentište is symbol of the unity of people of the former SFRY, symbol of resistance, symbol of heroism, symbol that must be preserved for new generations. About 7,000 male partisans and 597 female partisans died in Tjentište, and we have no right to forget them.

We call upon the media in Montenegro to support the fundraising action for the recovery of the landslide at Tjentište.

We call upon Montenegrin state institutions to engage into fundraising action, hence to demonstrate a responsible attitude towards victims of National Liberation War (NLW) and to assist the state institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina in preserving the Tjentište monument, which belongs to all people and nationalities of the former SFRY.
