Moscow/ Brussels, Apr 16 (UNI) The EU is likely to ban Serbia from joining the European Union if it attends Russia’s upcoming Victory Day, as Russian President Vladmir Putin has invited Serbian President Alexsander Vucic as its chief guest for the celebrations.
The Victory Day will mark the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union’s triumph over Nazi Germany and the Axis Powers during World War 2. The celebrations will see the annual military parade at Red Square on May 9 to mark the Red Army’s triumph and pay its respect to the sacrifice of the soldiers who fell to the Nazi attack.
Much to the EU’s chagrin, Vucic has confirmed that he would attend, according to The Telegraph.
