Serbian lawmakers have voted in a new government that includes two pro-Russia officials sanctioned by the United States, highlighting the country's enduring ties with Moscow despite aspirations to join the European Union.
The government, led by Prime Minister Miloš Vucevic, secured approval with a 152-61 vote in the 250-member parliament, with 37 lawmakers absent. Notably, the new Cabinet reinstated former intelligence chief Aleksandar Vulin and Russia supporter Nenad Popovic as vice-premiers, alongside pro-Russia politician Ivica Dacic as the Interior Minister.
