The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, said that in 1999, the leaders of the United States and Great Britain demanded that Hungary launch a ground attack on Serbian territory. This is reported by RTS.
In his address to the nation on Saturday, Vucic recounted a story told by the current Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orban.
"In 1999, Hungary was to attack Serbia from the ground, Orbán confirmed to me and told me I could say it publicly. Clinton and the British asked him to attack Serbia from the north so they could stretch their forces from Kosovo to Vojvodina. He refused , and Gerhard Schroeder helped him ease the pressure of the White House," the Serbian president claims.
He added that Orbán then allegedly spoke with former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
"When Thatcher opened the door, she said to him: I am very concerned that you refused to attack Serbia, because of this more British soldiers will die," said Orbana Vucic.
