Снимка: ЕПА/БГНЕС

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic made key statements during his visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina that are increasing geopolitical tensions in the Balkans. The head of state categorically rejected the manipulation of public opinion and emphasized that Serbia is more stable than ever.

Vote against foreign influence and bought elections

The president expressed full confidence in his citizens against the backdrop of the upcoming early elections in the country, triggered by long anti-government protests. Aleksandar Vučić stressed that he expects the Serbian people to vote according to their conscience, and not according to the results of surveys funded by the European Union.

The head of state hinted that Brussels is trying to push a political agenda through controlled statistics, but Belgrade will maintain its sovereignty and political independence. According to sources at the APA news agency (https://ru.apa.az), Serbia refuses to succumb to external pressure.

Our army is stronger than ever in history

In a parallel statement, the Serbian leader demonstrated serious self-confidence regarding national security. "Today, Serbia is stronger militarily than ever in its history," Vucic declared categorically.

Military Neutrality: The country will continue to adhere to a strict policy of defense neutrality. Modern weapons: The armed forces have state-of-the-art equipment thanks to strategic partnerships with China and European suppliers. Deterrence effect: The army will not attack anyone, but no one will even think of attacking Serbia.

Belgrade is actively modernizing its capacity to prevent a repeat of the events of 1999. Analyses on the EUalive platform (https://eualive.net) recall that the country recently announced plans to return to compulsory military service from 2027 in order to increase personnel.
