A shameful video from a celebration in Priboj whose main actors are members of the Serbian Interior Ministry and border police singing nationalist and offensive songs about Srebrenica, Vukovar, threatening a new genocide, did not provoke a reaction from Serbian Interior Minister Aleksandar Vulin. Although in any normal and democratic state, such actions of police officers would be sanctioned, this will not happen in this case.

How could the police officers behave differently when the minister set an example? Vulin could not give up his nationalism even on New Year's Eve, when he flew over Belgrade in a helicopter.

‘This is Morava 1, Morava 1, I wish all members of the Ministry of the Interior, all units, all those who are on duty tonight, a happy, successful New Year 2022. I wish them a year of health, work, progress, a year of our children. I wish you, dear colleagues, a year in which our Serbia will be upright, independent, the mother of every child, but also of all Serbs, regardless of where they live. I wish you, my comrades-in-arms, to be proud of yourself in 2022, at least as much as I was proud of you in 2021. Long live Serbia’, Minister Vulin told police officers via the tetra system.

And just because he sent such a congratulation only to Serbs, and that Serbia will be a mother only to Serbs, we should not even think that Serbian politicians will react to the shameful video. We should not dwell in hope that the time will come when various vulins will throw a bucket of paint on Ratko Mladić's mural instead of laying flowers before it, or send an invitation to a film about the genocide in Srebrenica. Because vulins do not recognize Bosniaks as citizens of Serbia. And if he had looked at the census, he would have seen Albanians, Hungarians, Macedonians, Roma...

Just a few days earlier President Aleksandar Vučić was trying to convince Bosniaks in Sandžak that Serbia was their country.

‘My message is that Serbia is your country as much as mine and every Serb in this hall and in every other place. I want you to feel equal, you were born here, you live here and your children will live here. This is your country and be proud of your country’, said Vučić in his address to the representatives of Tutin, Sjenica and Novi Pazar.
