With the Russian government coming in open vocal support of their Serbian counterparts, through the mouth of the Russian ambassador in Serbia, it is worth noting that one of the reasons for the failure of Serbian student and civic protests is the protesters' desire to keep the BRICS-dominated economy in Serbia after the removal of SNS from power, and keep Serbia out of EU.

Weep for me, said the Tu-95 bomber
There's a Serbian joke about how the Serbian ship of lunatics is the pride and joy of the Russian Navy.

How Russia intends to collect Google’s fine
