Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić recently expressed concern about security in the region following the creation of new military alliances, particularly the Albania–Croatia–Kosovo alliance, which has been the focus of his reaction. In his statements, the Serbian president said that his main priority is maintaining stability in Serbia.

“I am the president of a numerically small country. I am not Donald Trump or Vladimir Putin, big presidents who can solve everything easily. For me, nothing is easy. Of course I am afraid. I am a president who wants his legacy to be peace.

Suddenly a military alliance appears. Of course I fear for the life of every citizen of our country. That is my responsibility and my duty. Above all, I must preserve the stability of the state,” Vučić said.

He added that the creation of military alliances in the region causes concern for Serbia. According to him, this alliance is directly aimed against Serbia.

Asked about the statement by Croatian President Zoran Milanović, who said he would inform NATO about Serbia’s new hypersonic weapons, Vučić said that Serbia maintains correct relations with the alliance.

“We will not join NATO. We will maintain our military neutrality, but we have correct and good relations with them and we will continue to build those relations,” he added.

The Serbian president also stated that Croatia began modernizing its army much earlier. Vučić also claimed that a political campaign against him is being conducted from Zagreb, which he described as low and false.

“I am the person most exposed to a very low and very false campaign coming from Zagreb, but I am not worried about it. They tried to bring down our state and they failed. We will soon also have military exercises with NATO.

We do not want hostility and we will not have it. But will Zagreb decide what Serbia should have and how we defend our integrity? As long as I am president, Zagreb will not decide that,” Vučić said.
