"Protest performance" as EU's Mogherini addresses Assembly
According to Tanjug, Mogherini arrived to "a lukewarm applause", whereas PM and presidential candidate Aleksandar Vucic, who accompanied her, received "a strong applause."SRS deputies then proceeded to chant "Serbia, Russia, we don't need the (European) Union" and bang their hands on the benches during her entire address.
SRS leader Vojislav Seselj announced on Thursday that his presidential campaign would effectively start by interrupting Mogherini's speech today.
At the end of her address, Mogherini "cordially greeted" Vucic.
According to Tanjug, she "received stronger applause at the end of her speech than the one that welcomed her to the hall."
The EU official is in Belgrade for meetings with Vucic and President Tomislav Nikolic.
