Nikolai Sokolov. The US and its Western allies under the pretext of the Ukrainian fall pursue policy of ousting the Russian projects of the countries of the Balkan region, making friendship capital of Russia with the countries undergoing a serious test, according to scientists from Serbia and Montenegro.
The participants of the expert meeting in Belgrade, dedicated to situation in Ukraine and its influence on the situation in the Balkans, agreed that such actions of the Western countries are taking in order to halt the 1st stage of the project of gas pipeline " South stream ", which is obliged to pass and among them through the territories of Bulgaria and Serbia.
According to Misha Jurkovich of Belgrade Institute for European studies, pressure in order to stop the construction of South stream is becoming more pronounced.
" After Bulgaria and Serbia is under direct attack. Updated plans for alternative ways of delivering gas to the Balkans. The only problem is what Is gas and from where could He have got into these alternative transport arteries?", - said the expert.

on assurances of Jurkovich, has Also proven information that NATO is constantly working to engage the Alliance of Serbia and Montenegro regardless of the will of the people of these States.
" These countries have expressed a position on the condemnation of the Russian aggression against Ukraine and its accession to the sanctions. This is not only contrary to our traditions, but also directly threatens the already weakened economy. Tourism and real estate in Montenegro, as the most important activities, will not have any meaning if the Russians withdraw their own capital. We must remember that every village in Serbia lives From sales of products of Russia ", - said Cukrovic.
According to the former Deputy of the Parliament of Montenegro political scientist Sasha Markovich, the US was able to more or less " to colonize or, in modern language, to enter in the process of Euro-Atlantic integrations all the republics of the former Yugoslavia ".
" As far as Russia can in all of This influence, does not depend On events in our region. Europe occupied, but that the European Union does not have the ability to be viable, because in it there is a big difference between small and large States, but mainly in the degree of their development. Germany, though, and is born anew as world power, in the geopolitical sense toothless because it remains under American protectorate, as evidenced by the so-called informer Edward Snowden, escaped just in Russia, " said the Montenegrin political scientist.
according to him, escape From dependence on Germany will inevitably lead him to building strategic relations with Russia and to strengthen the stability of the Euro-Asian space on the axis Berlin - Moscow - Beijing, what is the reason and dream about the liberation of " neocolonization " the Balkan countries.
" It is correcting the ratio of the relics of the great powers on the Balkans. Let's see, will This mean and the emergence of a new old strategic friendship between Bulgaria, Serbia and Montenegro with Russia. Let's hope and work in this direction, " said Markovic.
He added that projects with Russia, the main " the southern stream ", as Well as large investments in Tourism in Montenegro will be a serious test, referring to the US pressure to halt Russia's economic and geopolitical breakthrough.
Similar opinion is shared by the Director of the Belgrade Center for strategic alternatives Dusan Prorokovic, stating the need for closer cooperation between the Balkan countries to confront the implementation of the concept of the so-called " yugosphere " project of NATO and the EU to establish surveillance over the region, where, According to the political scientist, the Orthodox Nations would be a secondary role.
