US-Serbia diplomatic tension over sanctions request
Overview
US Congressman Joe Wilson, acting as co-chair of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, has formally requested that Secretary of State Marco Rubio impose sanctions on four Serbian businessmen: Ivan Bošnjak and Stojan Vujko of Millennium Team, Davor Macura of Alta Banka, and Željko Mitrović, owner of Pink TV.
Wilson alleges these individuals are associates of Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić who use public resources for personal enrichment, undermine US interests in the region, and were involved in manipulating the October 25 elections. The requested sanctions include banning the men from entering the United States and restricting their access to the American financial system.
Millennium Team and Alta Banka have denied the allegations, describing them as untrue. Millennium Team, owned by Bošnjak and Vujko, is involved in major state projects such as the National Stadium and EXPO 2027.
