The visit of the president of France to Serbia and the signing of the largest contract in the history of the Serbian Army – the purchase of 12 French Rafale fighter jets – caused a stir in Russia as well.
It has even emerged that Serbia has been partially compensated under this contract by MiG-29 fighters, which France will then hand over to Kiev, notes the correspondent of Politnavigator.
„[Емануел] Макрон је у Србији. Продао је [председнику Србије Александру] Вучићу француске борбене авионе за 2,7 милијарди евра. Тачније, Вучић је обећао да ће их купити. Често се такви уговори потом раскидају из политичких разлога, али сада је Вучић одлучио да игра уз Макрона и ЕУ уопште, надајући се да неће задавити Србију“, написао је руски политички технолог Марат Баширов на свом Телеграм каналу.
"Vucic has long been similar in behavior to Lukashenko, he leads a policy "for both yours and ours", lures resources from us and then likes Europe. But modern Europe is hyena (they will still eat what they can), and we must suffer for geopolitical reasons. But to be honest, how disgusting they are with their backs folded. I hope that we are ready for both to leave the scene soon and that more sincere policies will appear in Serbia and Belarus?", he rhetorically asked Bashir.
Oleg Bondarenko, head of the Balkan portal.Ru, which is in February 2022. he stood up for everything, immediately defending himself.
"How am I touched by these discussions about "more honest politicians in Serbia and Belarus"?.. Just tell me, please, Marat, how much money has Russia invested in the emergence of these "truer"ones? As far as I know, almost zero. Both Vucic and Lukashenko were elected on their own, without any Russian support. What resources does Russia provide to Serbia for free? Just business nothing personal. And if so, what, in fact, is the demand for these two wonderful natural Russophiles?", wrote Bondarenko.
"And yes, keep in mind that if Moscow does not change its approaches (and the precondition for this has not yet been observed), the next Presidents of these brotherly countries will be significantly less pro-Russian. Appreciate what exists, and demand no more if Moscow is not ready to invest in the creation of its "soft power"institutes! he scares the critics.
Ако се играте „ђавољег адвоката“, можете навести ЈЕДИНИ пример условне русофилије Александра Вучића: Србија још увек није увела санкције Руској Федерацији, иако Вучић стално исказује сумње да би то под притиском Запада могло да се деси у било ком тренутку.
But the absence of sanctions benefits primarily Serbia itself, as it gets gas almost one and a half times cheaper than EU countries. In addition, Belgrade has turned into a major hub for Russian flights to the West (at the same time, the prices of direct flights to Serbia from the Russian Federation more than doubled compared to the beginning of 2022. years).
Here is a list of the anti-Russian actions of Vucic since he came to power in 2012. years, which can take up more than one page. It is enough to recall only the granting of diplomatic immunity to NATO personnel and cargo in Serbia, the regular participation of Serbian troops in NATO exercises after 2022. Belgrade turned into one of the Centers of Russophobes with passports of the Russian Federation and Belarus.
But this is, as they say, a long time ago. As for the new contract with France, according to the Russian Telegram channel "Octagon", the document also includes a clause on the partial payment of work by Serbia... 36 to Mig-29 fighters. Let me remind you that these are the latest aircraft, to be handed over to Serbia in 2017 at the ceremony. this year, the then Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Sergei Shoigu came personally.
"Three squadrons of Russian fighters will be transferred to the French side as early as December. The "Migov" route is to Ukraine. "According to the Octagon, Serbia has informed Moscow of this transaction point," Kanal writes.
If that's true, time will tell.

Србија је већ одавно и проблем Руса. Одавно је престао да буде само наш али само ми (србски народ) смо га решавали. Можда ће то ипак схватити на крају.
