The Russian Capital yesterday witnessed a pro-Serbia rally, in which over 1000 protestors, mainly young people, gathered in Moscow for a rally of support for Serbia, calling on Russia to send its army to Kosovo to protect the Serbs.

Organized by Russian national-patriotic groups and movements, the rally began with a “Serbian march” and a sermon led by the elder of the Church of Nikola on Bersenyevski, Abbot Kiril. The protesters were also addressed by Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) and Serb Radical Party (SRS) representatives, General Bozidar Deli? and Dusan Jelicic, who vowed that Serbia would never give up Kosovo.

The protesters including the representatives of the Serb community in Moscow, carried Serbian flags and those of the organizers, the Euroasian Youth Union, Orthodox icons and a flag with Milesevski’s White Angel, as well as t-shirts and banners carrying messages such as “Kosovo is Serbia”, “One soul—one people”, and “Russia, Help Serbia”.

The protesters chanted the slogans – “Glory to Serbia, Shame on America”, “Glory to Russia, Glory to Serbia”, “Russian Army to Kosovo” and “Yankee Go Home”.

Addressing the crowd in front of the Ukraina Hotel opposite the Russian government building, the Euroasian Movement leader Aleksandr Dugin said, “Serbs were Russia’s conscience, and Kosovo had been handed to the Albanian mafia, and that a criminal clique is calling itself a protector of democracy.”

Claiming that their churches and monasteries, were hostages of a new world order that the U.S. wished to create, Dugin said, “Our brothers have stayed there and are living there as if in a concentration camp.”

The Eurasian Movement leader said, Kosovo was closer to Russia than many thought. Ukraine was being prised from Russia and into NATO according to the same model and intentions as used for Croatia. “Ukraine is our Kosovo,” Dugin proclaimed.

Dugin praised the Russian authorities for taking the right course, and supporting their Serbian friends. Several hundred protestors chanted, “Russian Army to Kosovo!”, when he called on the government to send the Russian Army to Kosovo to protect the Serbs, to avert a possible genocide.
