The first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, Alexey Chepa, in an interview with Moscow, said that Russia and Serbia could reunite after the referendum. According to him, a plebiscite is necessary so that “then no one says that this is occupation, seizure and overthrow”.
As Chepa noted, the future of the country should be determined by people, this is a referendum. The deputy believes that the will of the people is necessary so that later no one can say that there was “occupation, seizure and overthrow”, since there will be a large number of opponents of this idea. He believes that it is necessary to “do everything clearly”.
The parliamentarian stressed that the Russian side will in any case provide support due to the fact that Serbia is a deeply friendly country for Russia. Chepa added that the Russian Federation also expects that the Serbian side will be able to cope with the provocations that are being raised there.
