Oil industry sanctions: Serbia is once again a victim of its own stupidity
On October 9th, the Serbian Oil Industry NIS faced US sanctions due to its Russian ownership.

Devil-summoning of the Serbian electorate and its consequences

Serbian pro-EU opposition parties and netizens scold the Russian ambassador
Unlike the student protester front that doesn't want to offend Russia, some parts of the society in Serbia, including notable opposition parties, are not amused by the constant interference of the Russian government in Serbian affairs, especially the vocal support for the Serbian government expressed by the Russian ambassador Aleksandr Botsan-Kharchenko.
