Clinton needed some distraction. Handing the very soul of Serbian civilisation over to muslims was no problem. The slavish media demonised the serbs. Deified the albanians. And hey presto. There are tards on FR who defend the action. And yet he we find the Russians taking the geopolitical big power hatchet to Ukraine to carve out space for Russians and it prompts gnashing of teeth and protestations about the sanctity of borders etc. But we see the U.S really cares for none of that pious pontificating. If it wants a chunk of your country to deflect from sleaze. Than look out. The sky is the limit

Serbia furious over latest anti-Russia sanctions

Brussels is only concerned with “revenge against free nations,” Serbian Interior Minister Aleksandar Vulin said

The Serbian government has slammed the latest package of EU sanctions targeting Russia’s oil exports, describing it as the “first EU sanctions package” against Serbia.

Restrictions on the maritime

Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic was equally critical of the new sanctions, saying they were introduced “at the expense of the lives and living standards” of all Serbian people. “It will cost us hundreds of millions of euro,” Brnabic told Serbia’s Happy TV broadcaster.

“What they thought they would do to Russia they did to us on Wednesday, because we depend on the oil pipeline in Croatia,” the prime minister added, accusing Brussels of “using energy for political blackmail and retribution.”

On Thursday, the EU announced the eighth package of restrictions on Russia which include a price cap and “further restrictions” on the maritime transportation of Russian crude oil and petroleum products to third countries. Serbia imports Russian oil by sea through a Croatian port terminal on the island of Krk, from which it is then transported through a pipeline to Serbian territory.

The new measures would make such imports at least 20% more expensive, according to Serbian media. In June, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic warned that Serbia would not be able to import Russian oil after November 1 due to EU sanctions.
