EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas, formerly Estonian Prime Minister, ordered EU member and aspiring member states not to attend the May 9th celebration in Moscow commemorating the victory in the end of the Great Patriotic War (World War II) 80 years ago. “We made it very clear that we don’t want any [EU] candidate country to participate in these events on 9 May in Moscow—that was very clear,” Kaja Kallas proclaimed. She was referring to the six Balkan states. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has been invited. Prime Minister Robert Fico of Slovakia is the only one, who, so far, plans on attending. His neighbor, Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who recently hosted Israeli war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, will be staying home. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will also not make the trip.
