Serbia is not getting in the EU anytime soon with this stunt. Shame really. Country has a lot of potential.
Adorable-Ad-1180@reddit
we are never getting in the EU, we missed the window in the 2000's when they were letting anyone in, because we fucked up with kosovo and nato, and the door is closed now. microstate montenegro will get in, the rest of us are cooked.
roctac@reddit
Of all the candidate countries I think EU wants you guys in the most because of the major trade route located in your country. They know Kosovo is political unpalatable for your citizens are willing to wait decades for a more favorable government to continue EU membership process.
Adorable-Ad-1180@reddit
I believe that we are definitely the most desirable candidate country to integrate in EU, and the least all the the same time lmao.
We were a notably stronger economy than some existing EU countries before they joined eu and moved forward in the world stage while we fought kosovo war and were sanctioned to hell during the 2000s. At the end of yugoslavia we were close to croatia in gdp per capita and now we're behind even bulgaria.
We are also basically a hole right in the middle of the southeastern european eu geography, but it looks like its easier to just build a new highway around us than overcome a very nato-negative population.
nrliii@reddit
with this stunt? as we are sliding into an open democracy lmao

I love the cognitive dissonance of our Serbros making Pikachu surprise faces at why the west backs Albanians, while simultaneously doing stuff like this.
Your stupidity is our greatest ally.
Professional-Fee-488@reddit
The "west" backs you precisely and exclusively because you gag on Israeli and USA shafts, be real, it's the same reason why some of the establishment is turning a blind eye to your drug and organ trafficking rings.

At least our Daddy helps us. You just suckntge Russians dry for the love of the game...

Serbs gave citizenship to a Muslim man... Hmmm... i mean yeah but...something sounds wrong
RebootAndPray@reddit
?
There are Muslim citizens of Serbia, around 4% of the population.
Metalmanicugusi@reddit
I'm not a Serb myself, i just noticed that mostly population of you country don't like muslims and like to kiss Putin's ass. But i may be wrong of course and i don't generalise just saying my opinion
RebootAndPray@reddit
I can see why, but thatās a pretty big generalization imo.
Serbia isnāt some hive mind - people have very different views depending on age, background, etc. Yeah, youāll find nationalists (like anywhere), but saying āmost peopleā I think like that is a stretch.
On Muslims - itās more complicated than that. Serbia has its own domestic Muslim population and people live together normally day to day. There are occasional tensions on both sides, mostly leftover from the 90s wars, but boiling it down to āpeople donāt like Muslimsā is just oversimplifying. On one hand Serbia was occupied by a Muslim empire for hundreds of years, so there is some resentment there, on the other hand Yugoslavia was very friendly with many Muslim states, Belgrade in the 70s was a hub for Arab students and vice versa many Serbian companies did construction work in Arab states, support for Palestine is generally large...so there's both sides.
As for Putin/Russia - some people are more vocally rusophile because of history (NATO bombing, Kosovo, that whole context), but itās not like everyone is blindly pro-Russia. Simping for a foreign power is unfortunately a thing in the Balkans, like there is a subset of Albanians that will be pro-USA even when Trump does stupid things, or Bosniaks that are pro-Turkey and supporting Erdogan even when most of the Turks in Turkey don't - similarly, there is a subset of Serbs that is pro-Russian no matter what. However plenty of people are pro-EU, while the majority just doesn't care much either way.
So yeah, thereās a bit of truth in what youāre saying, but the way you framed it makes it sound way more one-dimensional than it actually is.

This is hardly important, just a symbolic act for the voters as people are proRussian in serbia. Imporant stuff like sending wapons to Ukraine and Isreal he tries to hide
QuietWaterBreaksRock@reddit
"People are prorussian in Serbia"
So we are ignoring pro Ukraine protests, 10s of millions in different kind of aid, open support for Ukranians in the war and the fact that only the most stupid extremists show actual support for Russia?
Interesting take on your part
jokicfnboy@reddit
There are no Ukraine protests, or Russia protests, people dont care who controls Crimea or Donbass.
QuietWaterBreaksRock@reddit
Currently not, but there were
At around the same time there were both Pro Ukrainian and Pro Palestinian protests
personalaccountt@reddit
Around 10 people attended these "protests"
QuietWaterBreaksRock@reddit
"10 people" in question

Corrupt government does what corrupt governemts do: political services in exchange for influence or money. I don't care if it's khadyrov's nephew, dalai lama, taylor swift or jesus christ himself, the passport (and nationality) has to be earned and it should be a privilege and an issue of national oride and belonging. Just giving it away like this is disgusting.
True-Blacksmith4235@reddit
I donāt care actually if the Russians that live here for years and integrate get citizenship, but this is embarrassing.
127x108@reddit
Exactly. You need to earn it. Show that you want to be a part of the community. Learn the language, customs, integrate....
