In an interview with Russian state outlet Sputnik, Miloš Vučević, President of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), asserted that current political polarizations within Serbian society are intentionally induced by foreign centers of power via NGOs and media. According to Vučević, these efforts aim to weaken the state and force Belgrade into sanctioning Russia and ceding sovereignty over Kosovo.
Key Statements from Miloš Vučević
