Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, in his statement evaluating the effects of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on the geopolitical balances in the world, stated that a serious conflict awaits the world in less than three or four months.
“I CANNOT SPEAK ABOUT THE THIRD WORLD WAR, BUT…”
In his interview with the Swiss weekly magazine “Die Weltwoche” on June 12, the Serbian leader answered the question about the possibility of a world war: “I cannot talk about the third world war, but I am talking about a major conflict. How far are we? I believe we are not far from that.” “Not more than three or four months, and there is a danger that this could happen sooner.”
“WE WILL SEE A REAL DISASTER”
Stating that the situation between Russia and Ukraine is “getting worse every day”, Vucic said: “In the words of the famous historian Alan JP Taylor: ‘The train has left the station and no one can stop it.’ “And this is what it looks like. If the big powers do not do anything, we will see the bitter end of what is happening in Ukraine. I am sure that we will see a real disaster in a short time,” he said.
TENSION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND THE WEST CONTINUES
Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. After the Ukrainian army blocked Russia’s advance towards the capital, most of the fighting focused on the south and east, and Russia occupied areas in the east and south.
Tensions between the Kremlin and the West have continued to increase since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
In his statement on Friday, Russian President Vladimir Putin promised to “immediately” order a ceasefire in Ukraine and begin negotiations if Ukraine begins to withdraw its troops from the four regions occupied by Russian forces as of 2022 and abandons its plans to join NATO. .
