“Vulin's statements look like a not-so-washed-up version of the policy of Greater Serbia on the borders of Karlovac – Karlobag – Virovitica, which was propagated in the 1990s by Vojislav Šešelj, political father of the current President of Serbia. We all know what misfortune this politics brought to peoples of Yugoslavia, including the Serbs, so it is normal that such statements by the Minister of the Interior cause unrest among Serbia's neighbours in the region, but also strengthen nationalists in their ranks. Vulin fits perfectly into the role of a political chameleon, who went from the conceited Che Guevara, a member of the Yugoslav United Left led by the wife of dictator Slobodan Milošević, to his current version of a Serbia nationalist particularly fascinated by uniforms. The phrase 'Serbian World' is used as a counter-argument by some in the opposition, who accuse SNS [Serbian Progressive Party] and Serbian President Vučić of being ready for a compromise, according to which Serbia will, on one way or another, accept Kosovo's independence.”
