Roth: Vuciq is no longer a reliable partner, no room for Putin's EU servants

The chairman of the German Bundestag Foreign Affairs Commission, Michael Roth, has told the newspaper “Noova” that Aleksandar Vuciq is no longer a reliable partner because there is no room for Putin's servants in the European Union.

International observers in these elections reported vote buying and using ghost voters in favour of the ruling SNS. These are methods from the tools of an autocratic ruler, not of a president who is committed to democracy and the rule of law and wants to lead his country into the EU”, Roth said.

We remember that the reporter in Bundestag for the Western Balkans, Thomas Hacker, has told the N1, speaking of elections in Serbia, that various <x0vues have ascertained various irregularities”.

According to him, economic relations between Serbia and Germany have been very intense for years.

He reiterated that opening and transparency are the most important in democratic elections.

The government must have interest, if everything has been okay, to verify by presenting those documents, the electoral list. If they don't, I think the EU has the obligation to ask questions, to ask what is going on with irregularities reported by international observers, what impact have they had manipulation on the election results”, he says.

According to him, “in the Belgrade Parliament these manipulations apparently significantly changed the outcome, and the opposition vote appears to have gone into the hands of the powers”.

He also referred to what would happen if the <x0 minusiute escalated”.

“If the blockades in northern Kosovo are organised by Serbia and if they can be taken away in one word, if Dodik was on a demonstration in Belgrade last summer, at a rally and said Serbia -- whether Serbia paid for, whether Russia, and Vucinqi are standing by, that even this shows that the current government has a national tendency or has a step back, if the situation is still doing electoral manipulations in addition, then we are very critical of that and that is why transparency is very important. Let's get the facts out there and see what happened,” he says.
