West wants to ‘absolve’ itself from its own crimes – Serbia
By pressuring Belgrade to sanction Moscow, Western states are seeking to whitewash their own sins, the interior minister says
It is not in Serbia’s interests to reduce cooperation with Russia and to “absolve” the West of its crimes, the interior minister says
Serbia says it is not interested in diminishing its “closeness and cooperation” with Moscow, adding that by trying to force Belgrade to impose sanctions on Russia, the West simply seeks to “absolve” itself from its own crimes.
In an interview with the newspaper Novosti published on Sunday, Interior Minister Aleksandar Vulin said that throughout history, Serbs have always been “expected to do something for others” and to neglect their own interests.
“It is not in Serbia’s interest to participate in the conflicts of the greats, and it is not in Serbia’s interest to diminish the closeness and cooperation with Russia and its leadership,” the minister said.
He claimed that when Western countries ask Serbia to impose sanctions on Russia, they know it would not mean much for Russia from an economic perspective, but would serve as a significant moral blow.
“Those who bombed us know that the moral greatness of Serbia is disproportionate to its firepower, and that is why they need that little tormented Serbia, that brave victim, to be with them,” he said.
In his opinion, the US and its allies “have everything but morals” and so they want Serbia “to absolve them of the crimes they have committed and to absolve them of the sins of violating international law.”
“Unlike Western admirers of the right to vote and democracy, despotic Russia and China have never asked us to impose sanctions on the EU or US and accept their choice as our own,” Vulin said, adding that any “anti-Russian hysteria is always anti-Serbian.”
The minister also noted that his country does not want Russia to be defeated in Ukraine.
“The defeat of Russia would be felt with all its might in all positions of Serbia, as it always has been,” he said.
Vulin hailed Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic for “showing strength that exceeds the position of the president of a small country” in opposing the sanctions on Russia.
“Vucic is not a little Russian, he is a great Serb,” he added.
The US, EU, UK, and many other countries view Russia’s military operation in Ukraine as an act of unprovoked aggression and responded by imposing sweeping sanctions on Moscow.
On Friday, at a press conference with the Serbian president, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Serbia must follow the EU’s lead in sanctioning Russia, and recognize the breakaway province of Kosovo as an independent state if it hopes to join the bloc someday.
Vucic reiterated that sanctioning Russia would be difficult for Belgrade. Earlier this week, he told Serbian TV that the EU’s oil embargo has already cost $600 million in higher prices.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that the sanctions have backfired on the West, citing the inflation and shortages that the US and EU governments are now trying to blame on Moscow. The following day, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the sanctions have indeed made a “huge difference to food and energy prices” amid record-setting inflation.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY , ANONS!!!
Two photos emerged today that caught my attention. They are two different soldiers. One also has a tank with not correctly spelled Serbia on the tank, and we have a lot of Russian vehicles with “to Berlin” written on them. It is not clear if this tank has that on the barrel. But Serbia is not spelled correctly and the Kremlin has designs on the Balkans as well. So that is part of your context here.
The photos show a modern rifle, with likely a grenade launcher, or at least capable of receiving one. The special item on the weapon was not the weapon specifics, but rather Pepe the Frog. One patch on another soldier may indicate a mercenary formation, but I cannot be sure.
Pepe is very popular among the far right in the United States. It is something you can take to the bank when you see it on clothing. The person sporting it is most likely a neo-fascist. This has become common in places like Gab Social and 4chan, where it was thoroughly adopted by 2016. If you see it as an avatar on Twitter, chances are this is a far-right account.
Given the latter has an appeal outside the United States, it raises many questions. It includes the obvious. What is Pepe the Frog doing in the Donbas? We know some westerners have joined Russia. This may be evidence. Or it indicates something else.
Pepe the Frog started as an innocent thing, but it no longer is. This is a symbol of the antisemitic far-right.
