Serbian Pro-Regime Media Praise Russia ‘Overrunning’ Ukraine

"Newspapers that support the Serbian government hailed the Russian invasion of Ukraine on
their front pages on Friday, 24 hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his military assault. 

Informer and Alo led with front-page headlines claiming that Russia “reached Kyiv in a day”, while Objektiv’s headline said “Russians overrun Ukraine in a day”.

Vecernje Novosti‘s main headline was “Russian coup in response to NATO threats”.

Sprski Telegraf printed headline that “Putin is preparing ‘Satan’ [Russian R-36 intercontinental ballistic missile] for Europe” together with a photo of the Russian president in military uniform.

Politika led with “State of war in Ukraine”, saying that “Putin approved an operation ‘of demilitarisation and denazification'” and quoting only Russian sources about the ongoing war. Russian officials have often accused the Ukrainian government of Volodymyr Zelensky, who is Jewish, of being fascist.

Meanwhile Danas and Nova, which are seen as critical of the government, mostly reported on Serbian officials’ silence about the Russian attack on Ukraine." BalkanTimes
