Interview - Ivan Vujacic, former ambassador of Serbia to the USA
There is no rock under which Vučić can hide
"Of course, it is in Serbia's interest to have good relations with Russia. Building support for Russia in Serbian society, however, was done systematically. Putin gained the status and popularity of a rock star, like Mick Jagger. A hundred thousand people were brought to see him. The number of meetings at the national summit exceeded all others. In the narrative of our relations, we and the Russians have become centuries-old close brothers. The fact that we did not even have diplomatic relations from 1917 until the attack on Yugoslavia in 1941 by the Axis powers is being ignored."
