Serbia’s president denies sales of military equipment to Ukraine

Serbia never sold weapons or ammunition to Ukraine or Russia, although Serbian arms might have reached the battlefield via third countries, President
Aleksandar Vucic said on Thursday.
He spoke a day after Reuters reported that according to a classified Pentagon document, Belgrade had agreed to supply arms to Kyiv, which is fighting a Russian invasion, or sent them already.
“Serbia has not and will not export weapons to Ukraine,” Vucic told reporters, adding that it equally “has not and will not” export arms or ammunition to Russia, its traditional ally.
“There’s no document that can prove that,” he said.
The document seen by Reuters, a summary of European governmental responses to Ukraine’s requests for military training and “lethal aid” or weapons, was among dozens of classified documents posted online in recent weeks in what could be the most serious leak of U.S. secrets in years.
