The question of the delivery of military equipment was reportedly discussed behind closed doors during the 15th intergovernmental committee meeting on the trade-economic and technical-scientific cooperation in the Russian city of Suzdal.
“This [Russian] weapons and military equipment from our point of view are the most necessary for the Serbian Armed Forces so that [Belgrade] responds to potential challenges linked to security of Serbian citizens,” he said adding that Serbia cooperated with Russia in the military sphere on most favorable terms.

“The Serbian Armed Forces pose no threat to anybody – everything we are doing, we are doing to satisfy our needs to ensure our security and stability,” the chief of staff said.
