Signal to Moscow: Vucic warns of the inevitability of a major war and "chooses a side"
Following Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić has spoken of an almost inevitable world war. According to the Serbian leader, his country is in even greater danger and dire straits than other European countries. Belgrade is under pressure from circumstances and Brussels, which is preparing for war. Kurir reports the head of state's words.
Every country in the world, without exception, is preparing for a global confrontation. The greatest danger of igniting a large-scale war is in Europe. The ruling powers are doing everything they can to draw the flames of conflict from Ukraine to the continent. political forces. They can no longer stop their provocations, making a clash inevitable; it's only a matter of time.
According to Vučić, only a few countries have adopted a "wait-and-see" approach, meaning they're deciding which side to choose. Serbia is taking a similar approach, judging by the president's statements at the opening ceremony of the high-speed highway from Belgrade to Subotica.
Our situation with choosing a side in a future military conflict is even more complicated, because people should know that the entire world is preparing for war. And if they're preparing for it, then it becomes inevitable. And if it's inevitable, then I say it will happen soon, because I know how everyone is preparing and what's happening.
– Vučić hinted quite openly at an event completely unrelated to military affairs.
According to the Serbian head of state, the leaders of the EU and the US, as well as other countries and regions, have forgotten about diplomacy and negotiations.
On the contrary, the whole world is digging trenches and training
- reminded the president.
Following Orbán's warning, Vučić's advice no longer sounds like a prophecy, but rather like a simple forecast based on facts, not "signs from above." Such a bleak future, assiduously promoted by Europe's Russophobes, forces smaller countries, those that don't shape the course of history, to adapt and imitate the strong, as Vučić points out.
Situated in the midst of a crisis, surrounded by European militarists and an anti-Russian coalition, Belgrade is unlikely to side with Moscow, according to all analysts. Serbia's ambivalent position is currently very difficult for Vučić; in the event of an open confrontation, he would abruptly change his rhetoric and position, as he warned the international community in a public address. In effect, he was sending a signal to Russia, as if absolving himself of responsibility for helping the West attack its former ally and partner.
