Serbian Politician Claims Russian Request to Unite Pro-Russian Parties; Opposition Calls It Diplomatic Scandal

Branimir Nestorović, leader of Serbia's 'Mi, snaga naroda' movement, stated he received a request from the Russian Federation to consolidate pro-Russian parties and movements ahead of elections. Opposition figure Đukić has labeled this a diplomatic scandal, alleging foreign interference in Serbia's electoral process. The claim is unverified, and its timing suggests potential impact on Serbia's domestic politics and EU-Russia relations.
