Half of Serbians want their country to remain neutral when it comes to choosing between the European Union and Russia, with more expressing a preference for Moscow if they had a choice, a poll showed.
Twenty-one percent say Serbia’s destiny lies with Russia, compared with 13% who want the country aligned with the EU, according to a survey conducted by Belgrade-based pollster Demostat. A full 50% said they don’t want to choose a side -- even if that triggers a negative response from the EU, which Serbia officially aspires to join.
