Serbia vows not to join NATO, recalls how US-led bloc wreaked destruction on country
"We want to defend our freedom, our sky and our land on our own," he said at a campaign rally in the city of Bor
BELGRADE, March 27. /TASS/ Serbia will not join NATO because the US-led military bloc’s war of aggression against the Balkan state back in 1999 is etched into Serbia’s collective memory, the nation’s President Aleksandar Vucic said on Sunday.
"I’m telling you, we won’t join NATO. We will not join NATO because we cannot forget what they did to our country. We want to defend our freedom, our skies and our land on our own," he said at a campaign rally in the city of Bor.
March 24 marked 23 years since NATO launched its war of aggression against Yugoslavia that dragged on for 78 days. The operation, codenamed Allied Force, cited allegations that it sought to prevent “the genocide of Albanians in Kosovo" as its main cause. According to NATO’s sources its aircraft flew 38,000 sorties and carried out 10,000 bombing strikes.
The bombing campaign killed, according to various estimates, anywhere from 3,500 to 4,000 people, and left about 10,000 others (two-thirds of them civilians) injured. NATO’s attack led to material damage totaling $100 billion. During the three-month war of aggression, NATO forces dropped 15 tonnes of bombs and shells containing depleted uranium on Serbia. After that the country’s cancer rates soared to first place in Europe. In the first ten years after the bombardments, about 30,000 developed cancer and an estimated 10,000-18,000 of them died as a result.
