What happens between Russia and Serbia. The article by Giuseppe Gagliano
Relations between Russia and Serbia are becoming increasingly intense, here are the latest details.
The president of Serbia on Monday praised another arms shipment from Russia despite fears in the Balkans that the country's recent military buildup could lead to increased tensions in the war-torn European region.
THE LATEST NEWS BETWEEN RUSSIA AND SERBIA
President Aleksandar Vucic participated in a training exercise at a military base near Belgrade that included recently purchased Kornet anti-tank guided missiles.
WHAT THE SERBIAN PRESIDENT SAID
The Kornet is an important defensive tool to deter anyone from potential aggression against our country, according to the Serbian president.
THE MOVES OF RUSSIA
In recent months, Russia has delivered 30 tanks and 30 armored vehicles to Serbia. Serbia also recently purchased sophisticated Russian Pantsir air defense systems, as well as Chinese attack and transport helicopters and drones.
