Is this astroturfed because the current govt retained neutrality towards Russia?

But that’s still not enough for the imperialists. They have to stamp out even the token lip service that the Serbian government offers to Serbia’s historic affinity with Russia, which they only do to placate their generally russophile population. Much the same as how Turkey pays lip service to Palestine because their population is largely anti-Zionist but behind the scenes they are aiding and abetting the genocide.

I completely share this thoughts, it is also happening in Spain, they're making a complete circus about Pedro Sanchez lip service to "socialists" while he literally does whatever EU/NATO wants. Like the recent 5% military budget increase, Sanchez signed the agreement but said he didn't as a lip service to his voting base, and sure media went after him.

Western diplomacy is completely dead at this point and this campism will inevitably weaken them.
