Zagreb's Hysteria and Rage After Vučić's Victory

The cancellation of the Brdo-Brijuni summit with accusations from Zagreb against President Aleksandar Vučić, the ban on historian Miloš Ković entering Croatia, and Tonino Picula's unsubstantiated attacks on the electoral process in ten local self-governments are the best evidence that relations between Serbia and Croatia are at their lowest possible level. Particularly difficult pages in new chapters of Zagreb's attempts to openly interfere and influence electoral processes in our country were written during the recent elections in ten Serbian local self-governments. With a special emphasis on the small town of Kula, where dozens of suspicious vehicles with Croatian license plates were noticed on Sunday, the day of the elections. Just ordinary 'tourism' or special hybrid actions against our country – this is a question that the media have been intensively dealing with these days. Special hysteria and rage in Zagreb, it would seem, were caused by the fact that its election favorites in all ten municipalities suffered a serious defeat by Aleksandar Vučić.
