Aleksandar Vučić addresses UN General Assembly on shifting global order
At the 81st UN General Assembly in New York, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić addressed the global community, asserting that the established international order has collapsed and is being replaced by a new system defined by competing power centers and regional actors. He criticized the selective application of the UN Charter, specifically regarding the recognition of Kosovo, and argued that Western powers have undermined international law through past interventions.
Vučić demanded the establishment of the Community of Serb Municipalities in Kosovo and accused Croatia of promoting Nazi-era symbols and values. He also emphasized Serbia's commitment to its sovereignty, its independent foreign policy, and the strengthening of its military as a deterrent, while maintaining relations with major powers including the US, China, and Russia.
In related regional discussions, Bosnian Foreign Minister Elmedin Konaković raised concerns regarding the use of Serbian state resources and military in the funeral of Ratko Mladić, calling it a direct threat. Meanwhile, Montenegrin official Ervin Ibrahimović highlighted regional risks concerning energy security, specifically noting the dangers of long-term dependence on Russian energy and Chinese investment in critical infrastructure.
