We are deeply saddened by the departure of Mr. Challis who will, as a true friend of Serbia, remain in the hearts of the Serbian people forever.

It was with great pleasure that we recently hosted Mr. Chalis in the premises of the Embassy of the Republic of Serbia in London. On that occasion, the popular Boycie submitted a formal request for acquiring Serbian citizenship, which was warmly welcomed and approved in Serbia.

The Embassy of the Republic of Serbia in London expresses its sincere condolences to the family and close friends of Mr. John Challis.
