In a rare move, Russian President Vladimir Putin has extended his apology to his Serbian counterpart Aleksandar Vucic.

It was a Facebook post that triggered this crisis.

A senior Russian official recently published a provocative Facebook post against Mr. Vucic. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova posted a photo of Mr Vucic sitting opposite President Donald Trump in the White House and below it a photo of actress Sharon Stone’s legs.

The post angered Mr Vucic.

Ms Zakharova later apologised for the post.

Recently, Mr Vucic, while speaking to a media person, have revealed that Russia has expressed its apology for the post.

Russia, for the first time, has admitted that they have extended its apology.

In the recent past, the relation between Russia and Serbia have worsened.

The apology indicates that Russia does not wish to disturb its relation with Serbia.

Numerous police and protesters have been injured in the violent confrontation taken place outside the National Assembly in the Serbian capital Belgrade.

Actually, the protest began peacefully on Tuesday evening. But, it turned violent later, paving way for the confrontation.  

The participants of the protest were mostly students and their families, angered by a move to re-impose a weekend curfew because of a rise in coronavirus infections.

It was when the protesters broke into the assembly that the police intervened to bring the situation under control.

The police had to even use tear gases to prevent the situation from going out of control.

Far-right nationalists have been blamed for stirring up the unrest and storming the assembly building. As per a media report, they include an MP who has pushed anti-vaccine and anti-5G conspiracy theories.

It is unfortunate that a section of Serbian population pays less heed to the call for the restrictions.

Serbia has claimed that it has foiled a spy attempt made by its neighbour Russia. The details of the aforesaid attempt have been publicised by Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic.

He said that the incident would not affect the relation between his country, Serbia, and Russia.

Notably, the Serbian President has showed no interest to blame his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin. Instead of that, he has tried to give a clean chit to the Russian Supremo.

He said that the Russian President might not be aware about the plan made by the Russian spy agency.

The statement of the Serbian President is considered as a calculated move to avoid the ire of the Russian Supremo.

Serbia is located close to Russia. Serbia also has close ties with Russia – especially in the economic front.

It is not the first time an Russian spy attempt has been caught red-handed.

Anyway, what lies hidden in the statement of Serbia is a clear warning that it would not allow anyone to intrude into its internal affairs.

Serbia’s openly gay Prime Minister Ana Brnabic’s office says that her same-sex partner has given birth to a baby boy. It was reported that the the delivery was on Wednesday and the mother, Milica Djurdjic, and the baby are doing fine.

Ana Brnabic is serving as the Prime Minister of Serbia since 29 June 2017. She is the first woman, first openly gay person and first person with Croat ethnic descent to hold the office. Milica Đurđić, the same sex partner of Ana Brnabic works as a doctor and became pregnant though artificial insemination. They both met each other at a gay bar in the capital, Belgrade.

Serebia is a liberal nation and homosexuality is common here. Ana Brnabic has not been a vocal advocate on LGBT issues in a country where homophobia is widespread. LGBT persons in Serbia may face legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents. Both male and female same-sex sexual activity are legal in Serbia, and discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is banned. Nevertheless, households headed by same-sex couples are not eligible for the same legal protections available to opposite-sex couples.

Within a couple of hours, Russian president Vladimir Putin is set to reach Serbia –the Balkan country which is one of those countries whose request for the membership in the European Union is still pending, along with some of his senior minsters and the heads of his country’s nuclear and space organisations.

Ahead of the visit, Serbia has beefed up its internal security in the regions where the Russian president is likely to pass through and in and around the places where he is supposed to visit. As many as 7,000 police personals have been deployed for this task alone.

Russia president is likely to meet his Serbian counterpart Aleksandar Vucic and several other senior minsters and prominent business personals. Russia is expected to sign as many as 21 deals with Serbia. Most probably, the focus area of the discussions is going to be defence and security, energy and science and technology.

The Russian president’s visit comes at a time when the Serbian president suffers his greatest ever existential crisis. Serbia has been witnessing serious protest across the country for last few months against its president’s intolerance towards the opposition and disrespect towards the concept of press freedom.

It is debatable what message Serbia wants to give to the European Union with its latest move. An International relations expert opines that it might be some kind of pressure tactics.
