The Ukraine conflict is in fact already a world war, given that the West is fighting Russia via its proxies in Kiev, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic told local media on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe should understand that amid the world war \u2013 because all the talks that it is a regional or a local war must be dropped \u2013 the entire Western world is fighting against Russia via Ukrainians. It is a global conflict,<\/em>\u201d he said in an interview with Pink TV.<\/p>\n The president said that the ongoing global war is what concerns him the most, and, in his view, it will only get worse. He also added that the conflict in Ukraine is taking its toll on the Balkans, reiterating that Serbia would do its best to keep the peace in the region.<\/p>\n Moreover, Vucic believes that after Russia gains some more ground in eastern Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin will approach the West with a certain \u201cproposal<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201c<\/strong>I know what awaits us. As soon as Vladimir Putin has done his work in Seversk, Bakhmut and Soledar, after reaching the second line Slaviansk-Kramatorsk-Avdeevka, he will come up with a proposal. And if they [the West] don\u2019t accept it, \u2013 and they won\u2019t \u2013 all hell will break loose<\/strong><\/em>,\u201d he predicted, without providing any details on the would-be initiative.<\/strong><\/p>\n
