Bulgarian President Radev on the “Serbian World” Project: It Is High Time All European Institutions Take This Issue Seriously

“The Western Balkans are a critical point for security, and the entire attention of the European Union is focused there,” said Bulgarian President Rumen Radev in response to a BGNES question regarding the EU’s warnings about the dangers posed by the “Serbian World” project and how this initiative by Belgrade affects security in the Western Balkans.

“I believe it is high time all European institutions take this issue much more seriously. It is an extremely sensitive matter for us as well,” Radev added.

The “Serbian World” is the new name for the “Greater Serbia” project. Its goal is to establish control over neighboring countries, including through the incorporation into Serbia of territories from Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, Kosovo, and North Macedonia. The main instrument for its realization is the Serbian Orthodox Church.
