Serbia reconsidering participation in Georgia drill

Any participation with an NATO military activity is a national humiliation; why do we need to help them learn how to attack us better. They seem to spread war well enough without the Serbian tax payer contributing to their "training" at the expense of national dignity and national interests.

Isn't there an economy disaster that the government should be focused on?

'In parliament today, MPs from opposition New Serbia (NS) and Serb Radical Party (SRS) asked why Serbia planned to take part in the NATO drills in Georgia even though Russia has condemned them.'
It is a scandal for Serbia even to THINK of taking part in these excercises!! I am very glad that there are parties in the Serbian parliament who are actually looking out for Serbia's self interests, and keeping Sutanovac and the yellows from humiliating Serbia even further.

Alban,
You are completely wrong again. Serbia CAN and will have the best of both worlds. We are already in the middle of Europe, just look on a map, so the EU has no choice but to trade with us and deal with us. We are also Russia's number one ally in Europa, and we will keep this friendship forever strong. Serbia will do very well, don't you worry about us, you have much more pressing issues to worry about.
Cheers!!

I like the way our brothers think. Let's be careful about each other and then nothing will make us to retreat. Let the Albanians admire Jukanovic to betray his own people. But we will not make the a Montenegrin gift. Moreover we'll return our Montenegrin brothers too.

God bless Srpska !

What wrath? Who is going to attack who? Have you been frozen under ice for 30 years that you still think the Cold War is on? Serbia can join the EU and remain outside of NATO, like many other countries have done, who is going to stop them?

I think you should probably stop playing computer games.

This is unacceptable! Serbia has a goverment that is corrupted and are willing to sell their own teritory. With this act Serbia will turn a back to Russia that is a major supporter of Serbian teritory integrity. Without Russia Kosovo will already been recognized independent state by UN.

Even to think to participate in a NATO exercise is completely insane and makes me feel sick. Is the complete government on the EU/US/NATO payroll or what? Serbia should and will not betray its Russian brothers and sisters. If so it would be a big shame that will haunt us for a long time.

WHAT????

I love US! First they make Montenegro betray you and now they put you in a nightmarish situation: face Russian or US wrath. No EU either without NATO participation; NATO's main purpose was to stop the Russians, and it still is.

Choose: Russia or the West, can't have them both.

no such thing as both ways: East or West! Look who filed for Kosova: "the Czech Republic etc
Alban

What a joke you are. Why didn't you mention your other supporters Afganistan, Saudiarabia etc? They are not western countries last time I checked.

The US is stationing troops in Poland because Poland is a NATO country and all NATO members have US troops there.

Regarding the countries that file for Kosovo or Serbia, their decisions really doesn't determine what kind of countries they are. If China or Russia decide to recognize Kosovo, will they suddenly become Western, democratic countries?

Peter Sydyka,
If Russia is friendly now, why is Poland asking NATO to station tens of thousands of troops in its territory (build a NATO base) saying they're a NATO border vountry?

Other Peter,
no such thing as both ways: East or West! Look who filed for Kosova: "the Czech Republic, France, Switzerland, Albania, Austria, Germany, Finland, Poland, Luxembourg, United Kingdom, USA, Estonia, Norway, Netherlands, Slovenia, Latvia, Japan, Ireland, Denmark, Maldives, Sierra Leone." and for Serbia...you can guess.

This explain very well why Serbia is still a country in the sands.. It can't apply for any EU or Nato ..simply because if Moscow say do it ..they quickly obey ..if Moscow say sell me your silver for peanuts they do..and everyone in EU knows this so Belgrad must choose between Brussels and Moscow otherwise it will stay in his sand trap forever...

Recently, I read that the Serbian government is considering sending military units to Georgia to train with NATO forces. As an American, a former US Marine and UNMIK police commander, I thought I might take this opportunity to provide an outside opinion concerning this endeavor.

My first point: NATO is an enemy of Serbia. A military alliance that attacks a sovereign country, kills the citizenry, destroys the infrastructure, and continues to illegally occupy 12.5 percent of the land with its armed forces, is an enemy. Failure to recognize this glaring truth, and pretend that this actuality does not exist is base and servile.

My second point: Serbia should do nothing that will needlessly aggravate Russia. Serbia does not have many friends in the world today—so it is utter lunacy to harm existing friendships at this time. Playing war games in Georgia with NATO units will not bode well with the Russian Federation—and rightly so.

My third point: Serbia should call up all military reservists, carry out an equipment readiness inspection, and then conduct military training exercises—in Serbia. Perhaps Serbia should invite Special Forces units from Russia to participate in these exercise. I suggest that a large portion of this training take place in southern Serbia, in the Preševo Valley.

Serbia, your country has been, and continues to be under attack by Western forces. NATO is not your friend, it is your enemy—even more than the UCK. What more evidence do you need? What did NATO forces do while your people were murdered, their homes burned, and the churches destroyed? These attacks started after NATO forces arrived in 1999 and have continued ever since. Have you forgotten the March 2004 pogrom already?

For God’s sake Belgrade, get your head out of the sand and know your enemy! Contrary to popular belief, you do have other options. Taking the path of dishonor and cowardice, however, is contrary to your noble history—furthermore, it will lead to you utter ruin and loss of identity.
