Zelenskyy speaks with Vučić amid statements about ammunition for Ukraine

According to the Ukrainian leader, he discussed with Vučić the European integration of both countries.

"There are things we can help each other with. We also talked about opportunities for cooperation in the field of regional security. Our countries share the same interest in this, and we will work on it," Zelenskyy added.

Recently, Vučić stated that Serbia’s warehouses are "overflowing with ammunition" and that the country is ready to supply it to other European states, even if this weaponry eventually ends up in Ukraine.

The Serbian president also denied that his country poses any threat to anyone in Europe due to its ties with Russia. He once again emphasized Serbia’s military neutrality and noted that he is ready to cooperate with European armies.

Accusations from Russia against Serbia

Earlier this spring, Russia’s foreign intelligence service claimed that Serbia’s defense companies were allegedly supplying ammunition to Ukraine despite Belgrade’s neutrality.

According to Russia, the alleged shipments of Serbian weapons were carried out through a scheme involving fake end-user certificates and intermediaries. Vučić responded to the accusations, saying that "some of the things that were claimed do not correspond to reality."

Notably, in 2023, following the leak of classified Pentagon documents, it was revealed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces could have received Serbian ammunition worth around €800 million through intermediaries.

At that time, the Serbian leader also denied this information. Miloš Vučević, who was then Serbia’s prime minister, stated that the country had the right to sell ammunition to Western buyers who could later transfer it to Ukraine.
