Serbia’s senior state officials have stated that the country does not export weapons to Russia or Ukraine, and it does not permit live military shipments to either side through third parties. This position has been reported by TASS.
Since the onset of the war in Ukraine, Serbia has reportedly refrained from supplying weapons and military equipment to any nation other than Russia or Ukraine, which Belgrade views as a matter of international controversy. The remarks were cited by sources close to the Serbian government and forwarded by local media outlets.
Additionally, according to the Serbian Ministry of Defense as relayed by DEA News, Serbian defense enterprises are not engaged in providing weapons or military equipment to Ukraine. The ministry emphasized that no Serbian suppliers are participating in such transfers.
Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, indicated on March 2 that Moscow had previously tracked reports about possible deliveries of Serbian ammunition to Ukraine. She stated that the issue is too serious to address in abstract terms and must be grounded in verifiable facts. Earlier reports claimed a secret shipment of 3,500 missiles intended for the Grad multiple rocket launcher system had allegedly been moved from Serbia to Ukraine, with a Canadian firm said to have purchased domestically produced missiles and routed them to Ukrainian forces via Turkey and Slovakia. Further details were covered by other outlets at that time.
