Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic arrived in Moscow and visited Red Square on the evening of May 7. Vucic recorded an address near the Kremlin walls. The Serbian leader said he doesn’t care about the reaction of other countries to his visit to Russia.
According to him, he knows that no matter what he does, he will always be the one to blame, because there will always be those who will say that Serbia has now abandoned the pro-European path. Aleksandar Vucic stressed that he is not being elected in Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania or any other country.
The Serbian President expressed confidence that the republic will remain on the European path. “If they want to punish someone, let them punish me,” Vucic concluded.
The Serbian President spoke about his plans for the coming days: he will meet with Patriarch Kirill and present him with an order, on Thursday, May 8, he will meet with Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, on May 9 – with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and he will hold talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Vucic arrived in Moscow on May 7. In Baku, his plane made an emergency landing due to the unmanned threat in the Russian skies. Lithuania and Latvia closed their airspace to the Serbian President’s plane.
