He also rhetorically asked “who is the end user of” Serbian weapons and military equipment.
“I can’t in Asia, I can’t in Africa, I can’t go to Europe, I can’t in America. Where do you want us to export ammunition to Antarctica?” Said the Serbian President.
“Since we saw it, it (ammunition. – Ed.) Appeared in Ukraine, it appeared on both sides, both sides complain. To change something, I can only do so – say that all ammunition will be only in our barracks for a while,” he emphasized.
Commenting on the exports of Serbian weapons to Israel, Vuchich emphasized that “we are not exporting anything now.”
“We stopped everything, and if something should be done, it should be a special and specific solution. So we will look at how and what we will do next, according to Serbia’s interests,” he said.

- On Monday, Moscow repeated the accusations, declaring “soreness of this topic” for Russia and Serbia.
- Earlier, Serbia President Alexander Vuchich said that he did not mind that his country sells ammunition to mediators who send them to Ukraine.
