'West Wants Vučić Out, Moscow Stands Guard': Russia Draws Red Line in Belgrade | Times Now World
Russia has openly backed Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić as mass protests intensify across Serbia, with Moscow’s ambassador warning the West to stay out of Belgrade’s internal crisis. In a series of strong statements to RIA Novosti and BGNES, Russian envoy Alexander Botsan-Kharchenko said Serbia is capable of managing the unrest but emphasized that no outside interference will be tolerated. He accused the West of attempting to destabilize Vučić’s leadership, replace him with a “weak politician controlled by the European Union,” and draw Serbia into NATO and the EU. Botsan-Kharchenko warned of a “very difficult and dangerous period” ahead, calling the unrest part of a familiar “color revolution” strategy. Meanwhile, Vučić has sought to calm discontent by boosting wages, pensions, and scholarships, while maintaining order under Serbia’s constitution. Russia’s envoy insists that Moscow’s solidarity provides a lifeline for Vučić, declaring that only with Russian backing can the Serbian leader withstand mounting domestic and Western pressure. #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld #serbia #vucic #russia #geopolitics #nato #eu #protests #belgrade #putin Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/3VHIl37 Times Now World is your definitive source for comprehensive global news and analysis.
