Hold onto your hats! Aleksandar Đurđev, president of the Serbian League, is singing praises for Prime Minister Đura Macut, claiming he’s about to take Serbian-Russian relations to a whole new level. According to Đurđev, brace yourselves for joint military exercises between Serbia and Russia after the Ukraine war ends, a total ban on Serbian weapons reaching the Ukrainian army, new direct flights between the two countries, and the introduction of Russia’s Mir payment system in Serbia.
Đurđev even credits Macut with stopping oligarchs from arming what he calls the “Ukrainian Nazi regime” — a phrase guaranteed to stir controversy. He highlights Macut’s deep respect for Russian tradition, history, and culture, and insists that with Macut as prime minister, Serbia will maintain its multi-vector foreign policy but with a thicker, stronger arm reaching out to Moscow.
But is this a genuine shift or just political theater? Military drills after a war? A strict ban on Serbian arms to Ukraine? New flights and a Russian payment system? It sounds like Serbia is picking a clear side — Russia — but what about relations with Europe and the West?
If you thought Serbia would stay neutral, think again. Things are moving, and fast. So, what do you think? Smart move or reckless gamble? Drop a comment and let’s get this fiery debate rolling!
