Plane with associates of Aleksandar Vučić, flying to Moscow, turned back over Lithuania
An Air Serbia plane, which departed from Belgrade for Moscow on the night of November 4, was forced to turn around in the air and return to Serbia. On board, among other passengers, were the leader of the "Socialist Movement" Aleksandar Vulin, the head of the Serbian People's Party Nenad Popović, and the director of "Srbijagas" Dušan Bajatović, reports the Russian service of Radio Free Europe.
According to the Serbian media company Nova, the reason for the return was a report that one of the passengers boarded the plane without undergoing pre-flight inspection. In such cases, the same security protocol applies as in the event of a bomb threat on the plane.
Milan Kuč, director of Belgrade Airport's security service, ordered the crew to return when the plane was over Lithuanian territory.
After landing in Belgrade, all passengers and the plane itself were re-inspected. The procedure took several hours.
According to Nova, the passenger who boarded without the necessary inspection was Aleksandar Vulin. An unknown person helped him bypass the check.
Vulin heads the "Socialist Movement," which supports former Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić. Among other things, he served as Minister of Defense from June 29, 2017, to October 28, 2020, and as Minister of Internal Affairs of Serbia from October 28, 2020, to October 26, 2022. Aleksandar Vulin was often called the most pro-Russian politician in Vučić's circle. In December 2020, he officially announced the concept of the "Serbian world," based on the idea of "Greater Serbia."
In a conversation with the Serbian TV channel N1, the politician stated that he was flying to Moscow to discuss the expansion of the gas agreement between Russia and Serbia. Vulin called the information that he boarded without inspection a lie, and the incident itself a politically motivated campaign against him.
Dušan Bajatović, director of "Srbijagas," stated that he did not know the purpose of Vulin and Popović's trip to Moscow. He himself, according to him, was flying to resolve issues related to gas supplies, as well as problems that arose after the closure of the Serbian bank Alta Bank.
