REDUCE NUMBER OF FLIGHTS TO MOSCOW AFTER CRITICSM - SERBIA ANNOUNCED

REDUCE NUMBER OF FLIGHTS TO MOSCOW AFTER CRITICSM - SERBIA ANNOUNCED

 

BELGRADE, SERBIA : AirSerbia will go back to one (1) flight a day to Moscow, the Serbian president announced, following criticism that the country's national carrier is busting a European Union-wide ban on flights to Russia and profiting from the war in Ukraine.

Since the Russian invasion started over two (2) weeks ago, AirSerbia has doubled the number of flights to the Russian capital and introduced larger aircraft to increase the number of seats for what has become its most profitable destination. 

 

Beside some Turkish carriers, Serbia's airline is the only European company that has kept on flying to Russia since the international flight ban was announced after Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine. That triggered criticism from both the EU and Ukraine.

 

" Serbia is the only one in Europe with an open sky to Russia," Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister Emine Dzheppar tweeted. " MAKING MONEY ON (UKRAINIAN) BLOOD IS UNWORTHY OF AN EU CANDIDATE COUNTRY."

 

Serbia's populist  president, Aleksandar Vucic, said AirSerbia will go back to one (1) flight to Moscow a day following " THE WITCH HUNT " against his country.

" And will those who are leading the chase against Serbia in connection with the flights to the capital of Russia be satisfied with that ?" Vucic asked during a TV interview on March 12, 2022. 

Referring to Turkey, he complained that " no one will touch those in NATO, who are partly in Europe and partly in Asia, and have 30 times more flights to Moscow than Serbia."

Vucic did not say when the flight reduction will start. There were two (2) AirSerbia flights scheduled for Moscow on March 13, 2022.

Despite formally seeking EU membership, Serbia has refused to introduce international sanctions against its ally Russia. EU officials have repeatedly warned Serbia that it will have to allign itself with the bloc's foreign policies if it wants to join.

Serbia's dominant state-controlled media are unselectively carrying Moscow's war propaganda, creating a strong pro-Putin mood among Serbia's ultranationalists and far-right groups.
