Serbia Ditches Russian Arms Deals Amid Western Pressure
Due to international sanctions on Russia, Serbia has been forced to cancel several Russian weapons contracts and seek alternative suppliers. The Serbian Armed Forces are now procuring military equipment from countries including Israel and China, as well as Western nations, to maintain their military capabilities. This shift reflects Serbia’s pursuit of European Union membership, despite maintaining military neutrality and existing Soviet/Russian military equipment. Simultaneously, Serbia is securing spare parts and maintaining its existing Russian-made equipment, and has already finalized major contracts with France and Israel.
