Serbia Sends 1 Million Rounds and 100,000 Shells To Ukraine!

Serbia is emerging as one of the most quietly consequential players in the evolving European response to Russia’s war on Ukraine.

This pivot is happening in defiance of mounting Russian pressure and in the face of a domestic population still largely sympathetic to Moscow. The resulting tension is reshaping Serbia’s foreign policy and exposing the limits of its longstanding balancing act. What follows is a closer look at the motivations, methods, and risks behind this shift — and why it matters far beyond the region.
