Harsh messages from Belgrade after Spajić's words: "Don't talk to Vučić about principles, you wish all the worst for Serbia"

After Montenegrin Prime Minister Milojko Spajić told Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić that Montenegro does not want a conflict with that country, but rather that it has a problem with double standards, the president of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) Miloš Vučević and the speaker of the Serbian Parliament Ana Brnabić spoke out, telling the Montenegrin authorities not to look for the culprit for their political problems across the border.

Brnabić assessed that official Podgorica, not Montenegro, has shown that it wishes all the worst for Serbia and the Serbian people.

"You recognized the unilateral declaration of the so-called independence of our province of Kosovo and Metohija. You were not with us while we cried for the victims of the largest ethnic cleansing on the European continent, the war crime called Storm, but you were with those who celebrate the expulsion and killing of Serbs just because they are Serbs. You do not allow the Serbian language to be the official language in Montenegro, even though it is spoken by more than 40 percent of the population," Brnabić stated in a post on Iks.

She said that Vučić was good to the authorities in Montenegro when he needed to help them come to power, but that now he is Russia's PR for them.

"When someone has no spine or cheek, just like you have no spine or cheek, that's what it looks like," added the President of the Serbian Parliament.

Brnabić stated that Serbia has a principled position and respects international law always and without exception.

"You do as they tell you - sometimes borders are inviolable, and sometimes they are irrelevant. Don't talk to Vučić about principles, you who have no principles except blind obedience," said Brnabić Spajić.

The president of the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), Miloš Vučević, assessed that politicians in Podgorica, for the umpteenth time, are looking for the only saving grace for their own political instability in attacks on Aleksandar Vučić and Serbia.

"Unlike you who nod their heads to every directive from abroad without question, Aleksandar Vučić answers only to the people of Serbia. Serbia does not give away weapons, nor does it join other people's wars. And we do not sell them to either the Russian or Ukrainian sides," Vučević stated in a post on Iks.

"We have been appealing from day one for the establishment of peace," he added.

According to him, the fact that Montenegro does not have a dedicated industry, and therefore does not understand how global trade works, is Montenegro's problem.

"We are being taught lessons by those who violated international law by recognizing the fake state of 'Kosovo', against the will of their own citizens, and now swear by the principle of territorial integrity of other states. When you learn what consistent respect for the UN Charter means, then come forward to speak about principles," Vučević said.

He assessed that Aleksandar Vučić is the only leader in Europe who has managed to maintain military neutrality for years, not impose sanctions on Russia and, as he stated, preserves the stability of the entire region.

"Including your economy, which largely relies on the influx of money from Serbian tourists. Use the energy you spend on attacks on us to finally solve the accumulated internal problems in Montenegro and stop looking for the culprit for your own political impasses across the border. Serbia wants a stable region, but it will not allow itself to be blackmailed and insulted by those who are not even allowed to draw up the agenda of their own government without someone else's permission," he concluded.
