Vučić: October 5 marks Western verdict on Kosovo and Montenegro departure

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, leading the SNS electoral list, characterized October 5, 2000, as the day the West imposed a verdict on Serbia regarding Kosovo and Montenegro's departure. This is a rhetorical framing of the 2000 overthrow of Milošević, used in a domestic political context ahead of elections. The statement reflects ongoing nationalist narratives but does not signal a new policy shift.
