BELGRADE, September 30 – RIA Novosti. Serbia should learn from Moscow, Minsk and Beijing to resist Western pressure, says former Deputy Prime Minister of Serbia, founder of the Socialist Movement party, Alexander Vulin.
“How to deal with the obvious pressure of the West, all the speculation that they spread, if we didn’t try to fight it in this way, we didn’t create a legal framework. We could learn this from Russia, Belarus, China, as they did with their “color revolutions” - according to the law, only according to the law, no parallel methods. This is what we had to do,” the Serbian politician, who successively headed the Defense Ministry, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Security and Information Agency, said in an interview with RIA Novosti (counterintelligence) of Serbia.
Vulin recalled that he advocated a bill to create a register of foreign agent organizations. However, the parliamentary majority led by the ruling Serbian Progressive Party did not consider these proposals.
Former Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic on Sunday announced attempts to organize a “color revolution” in the country, noting that one of the reasons was Belgrade’s refusal to impose sanctions against Russia.
