“As long as we can withstand without sanctions, I think it will be fair to withstand without sanctions. I don’t know how long we can, but as you can see, my “I don’t know” is worth a lot more than someone’s big “yes” in an election campaign. Our struggle has been going on for almost a year, and someone’s big “yes” lasted exactly until April 3, ”Vučić emphasized.
The politician added that Belgrade is paying a high price for abandoning the restriction against Moscow, but this decision is reputational for Serbia.
Earlier, Vucic called the condition for Serbia to join the anti-Russian sanctions. According to him, Belgrade will support restrictions against Moscow if the country’s interests are threatened.
