How did Serbia-Germany relations collapse: Vucic goes from a favourite to 
becoming a constant target of criticism

There is still no information about what the future convocation of the Serbian 
parliament will look like after the recent elections, and the ruling party has 
not unveiled if political opponents will be a part of it. On Christmas Day, 
they were not in the mood for talk on political issues. All of them, except 
one, the former leader of the progressive party. He does not deal with 
post-election combinations but with who seriously interfered in the Serbia 
elections. And, he says, he will write an essay about that. 

For two weeks, every day, Serbia was seeing protests against election theft. 
Evidence and reports from Europe were pouring in that what they saw in Serbia 
was “anything but a holiday of democracy.” The ruling party did not see the 
reason for not celebrating nor did they see any evidence of theft. Serbian 
state leadership saw something else as a problem.

Serbian state authorities are preparing an important letter about the influence 
of an important country and the interference of an important country in the 
election process in Serbia, so far in the most brutal way, Aleksandar Vucic 
said on December 21.

And it will be ready by the new year, the president said then, so that it would 
be sent to the whole world on Christmas. Christmas has arrived, but there is no 
letter. N1 tried to get some information about the letter from Defence Minister 
Milos Vucevic but with no success.

More fortunate were the colleagues who were at the Presidency building. They 
found out that a small piece of writing had become an essay in two weeks.

„We are making a serious study and regardless of the fact that it will not be 
an easy thing for us to publish, we will publish it when we finish. But that 
brutal interference in the internal affairs of Serbia and its election process 
continues, and I can say, with somewhat reduced intensity, it still continues,“ 
said President Aleksandar Vucic.

No one made a mention of the name of the country that, as the authorities say, 
so brutally interfered in Serbia elections, and now an essay is being prepared 
for it. However, after such statements, all eyes are on Berlin.

„It is obvious that Germany perceives Vucic as a problem since the departure of 
(former German Chancellor) Angela Merkel, this can be seen from the statements 
of the chairman of the foreign policy committee, Michael Roth, this can be seen 
from the views of (German FM) Annalena Baerbock, in the end,“ said journalist 
and editor of the NIN weekly, Zoran Preradovic.

Although important names in German politics stand behind such positions, they 
are not the official positions of Berlin, according to journalist Nemanja 
Rujevic. He reminded that this country wrote in just one tweet that what 
happened in Serbia on December 17 was not acceptable for it.

„But it remained unclear what it means unacceptable, whether it means what the 
word should mean, that such elections are not accepted or it means only a mild 
paternal criticism, after which everything continues as before“, Rujevic added.

The friendship between Vucic and Berlin cannot end yet, according to Rujevic. 
Because, he deems, that country, that is, the European Union, is silent and 
waiting for the problem on top of the problems to be solved.

For now, the president only announced the delivery of the report. Everything 
will be written in it, he said, adding that there is nothing to hide and 
nothing to be ashamed of.
