**Serbian President’s US Visit Ends in Embarrassment**
The visit of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic to the United States has ended in embarrassment after he suddenly returned home due to health issues. The visit was meant to be a private trip, but it turned out to be a “complete fiasco,” according to Deputy leader of the opposition Freedom and Justice Party (SSP) Borko Stefanovic.
Stefanovic criticized Vucic for spending millions of dollars on his flight in a new plane, known as the “Falcon,” which was bought for over 50 million euros. He also pointed out that four lobbying firms were hired to promote Serbia’s interests in the US, but they failed to deliver any significant results.
The deputy leader of the opposition party claimed that Vucic did not even manage to take a picture with Trump despite paying millions of dollars. Instead, he met with former mayor of New York, Rudy Giuliani. The visit was also criticized for being a waste of public money, with Stefanovic stating that it was paid for nothing.
Another politician, Zdravko Ponos from the Serbia Center party (SRCE), joined the criticism. He said that Vucic “kissed the door” and was desperate to meet Trump, but failed to do so. Ponos also made light of the fact that the dinner during the visit cost a million dollars, but Vucic managed to take a picture with US Vice President JD Vance instead of Trump.
**Reaction from Assembly Speaker**
The reaction from Assembly Speaker Ana Brnabic was swift and harsh. She insulted Zdravko Ponos, saying that his hatred for Vucic is as big only because he is so beneath him. Brnabic claimed that Vucic showed how Serbia can be successful when led by people who care, unlike “earthworms” like Ponos.
The controversy surrounding the visit has sparked a heated debate in Serbia, with many questioning the effectiveness and value of the trip. The opposition parties have criticized the government for wasting public money on failed initiatives, while the ruling party has defended Vucic’s visit as a necessary step to promote Serbia’s interests abroad.
**Analysis**
The sudden return of President Vucic from the US has sparked widespread criticism and debate in Serbia. While the official reason for his return was health issues, many believe that it was an embarrassment to be avoided. The failure to meet with Trump and the unsuccessful work of lobbying firms have raised questions about the effectiveness and value of the visit.
The reaction from Assembly Speaker Ana Brnabic has also sparked controversy, with many accusing her of being overly aggressive and insulting in her response to Zdravko Ponos. The incident highlights the increasing tensions between the opposition parties and the ruling party in Serbia, as well as the growing polarization of public opinion on key issues.
