The leader of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Čedomir Jovanović said that the Russians are freely doing Serbia "as if it were Moscow Region" and that they will do to Serbia what they did not achieve in Montenegro and Macedonia.
"I don't want to be a Russian whip in Serbia. I know what's behind it, I know what the Russian Institute for Strategic Studies is, I know what the GRU is, it wasn't Vučić who opened the center in Niš, but someone else. Boris Tadić and DS. They went to elections by printing Putin's birthday card," said Jovanović in an interview for "Blic".
He said that the difference between him and the rest of the opposition is that they see different ways of removing Aleksandar Vučić.
As he states, they see the way in his disappearance, not in a political struggle.
"I deal with politics, they don't. For me, the biggest problem is certainly not Serbia and some mine that the Russians dug in Donetsk in order to compromise us and create additional chaos in Serbia", said Jovanović in an interview for "Blic".
He adds that in such a setting, Serbia will not be better, if the prerequisite is to "break the spine" of Vučić.
Jovanović believes that today Serbia has much less political potential than in the nineties and that people in politics in Serbia are, as he said, "dilettantes and car drivers".
"For those nineties, I was a kid, and now I'm an image of the past that needs to disappear since I'm still on my feet and I'm definitely right about everything I said about the country and did in it... This country has two and a half politicians - Vučić, Dacic and me," says the LDP leader.
In response to the paper's statement that he criticizes the opposition more than the government, Jovanović says that it is normal for him to support Vučić at the moment when Vučić signs "little Schengen" and not those who are waiting for him in front of RTS with derogatory messages.
He added that he always communicates with Vučić when, due to the chaos of the situation, neither he nor Vučić is feeling well.
"I recently told him that he is an unprecedented dictator. I was at the wedding of Nataša Mićić's daughter when he opened the eastern branch of the highway, and that news was not on any of the front pages. As I called him a day later, when he returned from Ohrid, after the "little Schengen" and told him that it was great that his media was allegedly taking away the right of Serbs to hear him, while he said next to Rama and Zaev that it was the smartest idea he was behind . He replied resignedly: "Only you notice that," says Jovanović.
