"Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Hoyt Brian Yee made a number of provocative statements aimed at undermining Russian-Serbian cooperation during his trip to Belgrade on October 23-24," the Russian MFA said, and continued:
"The US diplomat crudely demanded that Belgrade reconsider its cooperation with Russia and focus exclusively on rapprochement with the European Union. He also objected with unfittingly emotional phrases to granting immunities and privileges for the Russian-Serbian Humanitarian Center (RSHC) in Nis."
"We would like to recall that the United States is not an EU member, and this is probably why it is unaware that many EU countries are involved in large-scale, mutually beneficial and productive cooperation with Russia. Nobody should prevent Serbia from having the same approach on the basis of its national interests," the statement said, and added:
"As for the RSHC, the Americans are feigning ignorance of the assistance that it has been giving to Serbia and other European countries, including EU and NATO members, in overcoming the consequences of natural and man-made disasters. Its experts are also removing mines from Serbian territory. They have already removed thousands of explosive objects that were left in Serbia after the NATO bombing in 1999. During this bombing, ammunition with depleted uranium was used on a massive scale."
"We are urging our American colleagues not to impose on others hostile ideological stereotypes that undermine the foundations of international stability and cooperation in the Balkans and Europe in general," the Russian MFA concluded.
God Bless Dear Mother United Kingdom since United Kingdom - Great Britain was the first country which recognized Serbia way back in the year 1837.

In New Jersey we have an appropriate name for guys like this diplomat guy: Professional jerk-off.
Like the rest of the western hypocrite cowards, he is too ignorant and scared to directly mess with the Russians so he picks on the Serbs to get his jollies off. What a cheap creep.
P.S. Don't mess with the Russians! [link]

The scary thing at this point, is that if Serbia doesn't want to join the EU... it will be taken as choosing one side. I have no idea why Serbia is trying to even join, it's more then obvious that Serbia is being pushed to join the EU.

This summer Russia became less diplomatic when it comes to the USA and we saw it yeasterday during the SC voting over the barbaric tomahawk attack at Shairat base. Looks like Russia made up it mind to unmask the Evil in every part of the world. It's a great challenge in Ukraine, Balkans, Venesuela, Korea, EU, Iran, USA, Central Asia ect.

the usa still pushing the issue on morals to everyone, but they don't look at their own backyard.
the depleted uranium used by the usa warthogs still cannot be accounted for, it's called tricky accounting. the number of projectiles actually fired is a lot more than the us government has admitted
