Między Moskwą a Brukselą. Sytuacja międzynarodowa Serbii a kryzys ukraiński Between Moscow and Brussels. The International Situation of Serbia and the Ukrainian Crisis
The crisis in relations between Russia and Ukraine, and the related increase in tensions between
the Russian Federation and the European Union countries, reverberated in the Balkan Peninsula.
Individual countries in the region have reacted in various ways to the new situation and changes in
the international balance of power. This paper analyzes the manner in which the Ukrainian crisis has
affected the international situation of the Republic of Serbia.
Serbia found itself within the circle of political influence between the European Union and the
Russian Federation. Serbian authorities refused to join the EU sanctions imposed on Russia; at
the same time, they received President Vladimir Putin and politicians subjected to international
sanctions, such as the President of the State Duma Sergey Naryshkin, in Belgrade. This has been
reflected in the reports of the European Commission on Serbia’s progress towards the integration
with the EU. Despite the apparent exacerbation of polarization in the European political arena, Serbia
is striving to find the balance between the EU and the Russian Federation. Serbian representatives
even made proposals suggesting that Serbia could bring about the ‘reconciliation’ between Russia
and the EU, acting as a mediator.
To some extent, Serbian authorities continue the political tradition of the time of Yugoslavia, governed
by Josip Broz Tito, when Belgrade also tried to find the balance between East and West, the communist
and the capitalistic blocs. Currently, Serbia is making attempts to take advantage of the new situation in
the system of international relations in Europe in order to pursue its own political goals.
