"The shameless interference of European bureaucrats in the internal affairs of a sovereign state like Serbia is unacceptable." With these words, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova reacted to the statement by EU Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos that Aleksandar Vulin should not be part of Serbia's future government due to his ties to Moscow.
She emphasized that Brussels officials have no legal, let alone moral, rights to impose on any country what policy it should pursue.
Zakharova also commented on cooperation between Serbia and the EU in the field of defense industry, as well as the fact that Serbia and Hungary signed a military agreement. The Kremlin official said that she considers it absurd to approach a sinking ship, as she called it.
"The EU is sinking. The economy, politics, industry, production, finance - everything is failing, everything is sinking, that's clear. Why join that sinking ship and go to the bottom with it? That's completely unclear," Zakharova said. She also questioned the bloc's defense industry and overall military potential. (A2 Televizion)
