Hello Serbia,

I'd like to introduce an article written by Marija Desivojevic Cvetkovic ( Vice President of Development at Delta Holding d.o.o.):

http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/foreign-policy/224573-congress-needs-to-support-serbias-journey-of-change

If she understands the importance of EU integration, why don't you?

The Western Hypocrits sends mercenaries to Ukraine Murdering Russians for Money,
but complain over Russia protecting their own countryfellowmen.

Go to Hell with EU and the US !.

(Arn.Sweden., 16 November 2014 07:02)

Well, the mercenaries in Eastern Ukraine, as even Russia has admitted, are Russian soldiers "on leave". So, are you saying that the Russian soldiers are murdering Russians for money in Eastern Ukraine?

It is more likely that the EU will implode before Russia collapses economically, but it doesn't require any thought to parrot mainstream media propaganda. That's the power of brainwashing. It's simply not conductive to this black propaganda to mention that Russia has over $400 billion dollars of financial reserves and huge amounts of gold.
(EU Dude, 15 November 2014 10:45)

Yeah, that's the power of Kremlin's brainwashing for people like you. The "huge amounts of gold" that Russia owns are 1/7 of the US gold reserves, 1/3 of Germany's gold reserves, 1/2 of Italy's gold reserves and 1/2 of France's gold reserves. Only 10% of Russia's reserves are in gold.
----------

Anyone following proper financial news will know that many European companies' profits have been badly hit because of sanctions (check out French conglomerate 'Danone' for example) as Russia is a major growth market. These companies are barely making a profit in the EU which is already saturated.
(EU Dude, 15 November 2014 10:45)

Not sure what "many" means? You just mentioned 1 company :) But anyone following proper financial news will know that the Ruble is being knocked into rubble to record lows against the dollar and the EUR. Unfortunately for Russia, the Ruble can't be controlled with the police, soldiers and tanks. I thought that Putin was smart enough to learn from Bush's mistakes about the disastrous consequences that foreign policy adventures can have and not imitate Bush.

Follow EUs dictates and Serbia will be the puppet of EU,
and lose all her Freedom and possibility of independent action.

It is EU and the US who should stop supporting Ukraine attacking and murdering the Russians in the east of the Country.

Mebbe Serbia will consider putting some stock in your idea if some of your unrepented compadres stand trial and face some justice for the evil doings against her citizens (including those near the village of Korisa that were returning back to their homes when massacred and torn to pieces by cluster bombs for not joining the planned mass exodus for CNN to film, thereby defying and jeopardizing NATO's planned lies to the world), infrastructure and ecology during the illegal and ungodly NATO bombing.
Perhaps yall can start by showing some willingness to take that high road by let's say, allowing me to pick the Judges. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CPYv4441Ok

serbia does not understand that if it want to be part of Europe, it has to act with Europe...in the future the continent is going to be just like the United States. One country called Europe with capital Brussels and all the states have their own capital. People moving freely everywhere they want, one big economy, IT is a great opportunity for business and advancement. We can't go against each other, Russia is our enemy, wants to break us apart because they know if we united we are powerful :) and in this case is using serbia like a master uses his dog.

The reason EU cares is they are pouring billions of dollars into Serbia as Serbia has claimed its number one goal is to be a member of the EU. So of course they expect it to honor its policies.
Serbia is getting more money from the EU than they have ever gotten from Russia, so economic hardship??? If it were vise-versa, and Russia wanted Serbia to abandon the EU then you would have a case of economic hardship as Russia takes more than it gives already. Russian investment in Serbia is investment in what Russia owns.
As far as repaying damage to infrastructure of Serbia is ludicrous, that has always been over played. The majority of bombing occurred in Kosovo with limited strikes in Serbia itself. Donations from the west over the last 15 years have amounted to many times any damage done by the war, which in no way would anyone other than Milosevic supporters be liable for.
While I doubt there are any sanctions Serbia could impose that would actually make a difference, to wonder why EU would expect them is just plain dumb.

The EU is neither united nor strong. Germany has just avoided recession by the smallest of margins.

It is more likely that the EU will implode before Russia collapses economically, but it doesn't require any thought to parrot mainstream media propaganda. That's the power of brainwashing. It's simply not conductive to this black propaganda to mention that Russia has over $400 billion dollars of financial reserves and huge amounts of gold.

Either way, the sanctions so far are a joke because they avoid much more heavy and more obvious options, but if those are deployed there will be significant blowback to the EU.

As usual, the Americans are happy to profit out of Europe's misery. They profited massively out of each World War and then the Cold War. Their weapons makers must be laughing all the way to the bank.

There is no business case for these sanctions. They will not succeed. They are hamstrung by the fact that the EU continues to suck up all the oil Putin pumps to them. If the EU is to succeed, it has to promote growth. If it does not it will be a political failure that causes economic failure.

Com. Parrson,


Why do you think that Russia is going to collapse economically? Oil has been cheap for a few weeks now, do you really think that is going to continue indefinitely? Is that going to increase or decrease the appetite for energy? Is Saudi Arabia, who's only notable source of income is selling oil, going to sabotage the price of its second biggest export after terrorism and continue to sell it for cheap?

Ari Gold

I hate these EUrofags with a passion. Have you ever heard Russia tell Serbia they should slap sanctions on the West? Why does the EU care so damn much what Serbia, a non member, does with its relationship with Russia. Will the EU pay for Serbia's economic hardship that it will face from these sanctions?

How about this EUrofags, pay for the damage you caused on Serbian infrastructure in the 90s, and Serbia will have enough money to sanction Russia.

And why should we? Russia is a very old friend and they helped us out a lot throughout history! It would just be plain rude and unreasonable to do so. What has the EU ever done to Serbia apart from creating problems and unnecessary wars? Nothing.

When the day of Serbia's EU accession comes, sanctions for Russia won't be needed any more, Russian economy will collapse long before 2020 if Putin continues his policy of supporting ethnic separatists in Ukraine with weapons.

Though I'm not sure if the economical and financial meltdown of Russia we can witness at them moment is caused by the sanctions and not simply by the more and more falling oil price, knowing that Russia's economy and state budged is based mainly on the income generated by export of natural resources.

I say this with great pleasure Mr. Hahn, take your undemocratic EU dictatorship (aka Fourth Reich) and shove it. We Serbs are not interested. It is no place for free and independent people like us. Feel free to keep giving diktats to your other obedient and loyal quislings in the EU.

I saw this coming. The defunct EU couldn't care less about Serbia nor, in my opinion, even has intentions of ever accepting Serbia into the fold. This is only manipulation as it always has been. If they haven't already, they will eventually request that Serbia recognizes Kosovo. These are steep prices to pay for EU membership something that England is considering withdrawing from. I believe that the Serbian politicians can see through all of this and are only playing the game. To impose sanctions on Russia would be suicidal for a ton of reasons. To sanction Russia only to appease the US, a terrorist country, who has caused the ultimate crime against the Serbs would be ludicrous. Keep the course Serbia,play the game, but you know what the reality is.
