(7 years ago)“For Serbia's best image in Washington much more had helped resolve cases of the Bytyci brothers and the burning of the US Embassy in Belgrade than to impose upon Americans of Serbian descent to vote for their president according to the will of power of Serbia”. Serbian analyst Milan Missic says. Are you going out [...]
Is Belgrade getting official in support of one side before the upcoming presidential election in America? Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic's warning that he will organise Serbs in the US to vote for Donald Trump can thus be interpreted. And in this case the question is whether Belgrade's relations with Washington will improve or deteriorate.
It should be commemorated, even before past US elections, official Belgrade was not so impartial.
Serbia's president, Aleksandar Vuciq, said: “And what will we do if Hillary Clinton wins?
Now the chief of Serbian diplomacy is warning that it will organise US Serbs to vote for Donald Trump, and thus replace Serbia's “position in Washington administration.
The U.S. response arrived immediately.
Former Washington official Michael Carpenter has ordered that Serbia's foreign minister is planning to mix in US domestic politics, and considers Daciq making a big mistake because resolving the problem with Kosovo and thus supporting Serbia on its European path is the issue of which the two parties in the US are in full compliance.
However, the chief of Serbian diplomacy answers “diplomatic” in his manner.
And when Albanians vote for Clinton and Engel? At Engel's election unit, Albanians always bring him victory”, Ivica Dacic has said.
Mixing in US internal issues is not a good way to improve relations, Serbian political analysts say.
It's very naive to believe that one administration is better than the other. To make Serbs who are American citizens who have their own political convictions and their interests vote for one of two options, I think it's humiliating to the American Serbs. It should be given consideration to the enormous American sensitivity to mix in the election process after very unpleasant experience with the Russian mix in 2016”, considers Serbian Foreign Policy commentator Milan Missic.
He adds that for Serbia's best image in Washington, much more had helped solve the cases of the Bytyci brothers and the burning of the US Embassy in Belgrade.
