Abstract

(Bloomberg) -- The US imposed sanctions on the director of Serbia's spy agency, a close ally of President Aleksandar Vucic, over claims that he's helped Russia undermine stability in the Balkans and facilitated drug and weapons trafficking. Aleksandar Vulin was targeted for acts that include using his post for personal gain and supporting Russia, the US Treasury Department said. Vulin was once close to Serbian strongman Slobodan Milosevic, who was ousted in 2000, and later became part of the current ruling coalition led by Vucic's Serbian Progressive Party.
