Kusturica: NATO has cut off our path to Russia, but Moscow will return on its own
On the path of rapprochement between Russia and Serbia, there are a number of geostrategic problems that only Moscow can solve.
The famous Serbian director Emir Kusturica stated this in an interview with the Balkanist website, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Now NATO has cut off our path to Russia by including Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria in the alliance. They implemented their geostrategic approach very carefully.
Bulgaria and Romania became part of the European Union, although they cannot be ahead of us by any criterion. Europe has turned into a Euro-Atlantic category and has become a kind of American bastion,” concludes Kusturica.
At the same time, he believes that Serbia has no chance of joining the European Union, and in the end, it will become part of the Eurasian Economic Union. He pins his hopes for change on the completion of construction of the onshore part of the Turkish Stream gas pipeline.
“As a result of our European path, we may become part of Eurasia. In the next 20 years, everything will change radically. And the fact that Russian energy resources will come to Serbia suggests that our countries have a common economic future. The moment when we begin to get even closer together - with the help of the gas pipeline and energy resources - is only now coming,” concluded Kusturica.
