"Serbia's Crackdown on Anti-War Russians Sparks Concern for Refugees"

Russian citizens living in Serbia, who have spoken out against Russia's invasion of Ukraine, are facing expulsion and residency permit revocation, with at least a dozen individuals affected. The crackdown is believed to be linked to Serbia's close ties with Russia and its president, Aleksandar Vučić, despite the country's formal bid to join the European Union. Activists claim that the measures are aimed at intimidating anti-war campaigners and are likely influenced by Russia, posing a threat to those who oppose Putin's regime.
