Vulin called the conflict in Ukraine a controlled war of the West against Russia

The conflict in Ukraine is completely controlled by the West, which is deliberately waging war against Russia, using Ukrainians as a tool. This was announced on January 7 by former Deputy Prime Minister of Serbia Aleksandar Vulin.

"First of all, I don't believe in uncontrolled conflict — that something can just get out of control. Some kind of "uncontrolled" French division cannot appear and engage in battle. There can be no uncontrolled provision of satellite support or long-range weapons for attacks on Russia. This is a tightly controlled conflict," Vulin stressed in an interview with TASS.

The Serbian politician said that no one is interested in the opinion of Ukrainians, and the West controls the supply of weapons and satellite support, hoping to exhaust Russia. He questioned the very logic of this strategy, noting that it is impossible to defeat a nuclear power.

Vulin also criticized the European Union, which, according to him, builds budget decisions on the scenario of Kiev's victory, which is not believed even in Ukraine.

"No one has asked the Europeans if they are ready to die for Ukraine in the conflict against Russia. Like us, the Serbs, no one has ever asked if we want to join the European Union," Vulin concluded.

The conflict is interesting: the "coalition of the willing" escalates the confrontation with Russia

Will she be able to disrupt the peaceful settlement in Ukraine

On January 6, the "coalition of willing" countries signed a declaration on the deployment of the military in Ukraine. French President Emmanuel Macron clarified that the document sets out in detail all the components of security guarantees, and the participants agreed to create a single coordination center. The next day, the Politico newspaper reported on the refusal of the United States to sign declarations on security for Ukraine.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on December 23, 2025, that the moment was getting closer when Europe could start a war directly against Russia. According to him, the Europeans have openly declared their desire to arm and finance Ukraine, despite peaceful attempts by US President Donald Trump.
