Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced an emergency purchase of food and oil products. According to him, Belgrade cannot “pretend that nothing is happening” when the whole world is “hysterically waiting for something to happen between Russia and Ukraine.”
“Of course, your head explodes from the fact that you need to solve the issue of purchasing oil products in large volumes, you need to find money for something that the budget does not provide for. Today we urgently ordered 10 million kg of salt, 1 million kg of beans, the same amount of peas, because of the situation that is happening, we will take 30 million kg of flour, ”Vucic said on Prva TV (TASS quote).
The Serbian President has previously expressed hope that “Russians and Ukrainians, that is, Russians and Americans” will find a peaceful solution to the crisis.
The White House on the eve announced the risk of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine during the Olympics. He urged the Americans to leave Ukraine immediately. However, Washington does not believe that Russia “has made any final decision” about the invasion. The Russian Foreign Ministry called the statements of the White House hysteria.
