The West is unwilling to accept the outcome of the elections in Serbia and the amount of public support behind President Aleksandar Vucic, which prompted an attempt to orchestrate an illegal power grab, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told Sputnik.
Violent protests in Belgrade are an attempt to deprive Serbia of independence and sovereignty, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Sunday, noting that the authorities will protect the order.
The European Union and the United States say they are working with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti to find a peaceful solution to tensions unfolding on the border in recent weeks.
