EU warns Serbia: We will block membership if Vucic attends Russian parade in

Serbia could be blocked from joining the European Union if President Aleksandar Vu?i? attends the May 9 military parade in Moscow. The news is reported by foreign media, citing sources within the EU.

According to the report, European officials warned Vu?i? that a visit to Russia would violate Serbia's EU accession conditions and jeopardize the country's European ambitions.

It was previously reported that Vucic was among the foreign leaders expected to appear at Russia's celebration.

"The result of a possible visit by Vu?i? to Moscow is Serbia's exclusion from the European Union. The Russians are sparing no effort to involve people in the parade. For us, it will be a litmus test. Ultimately, we are assessing whether they stand on our side or play for another team," he is reported to have said about this decision.

The EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas, said earlier that this issue was discussed at the most recent meeting of EU foreign ministers.

"What was made very clear by various member states is that any participation in Moscow's May 9 celebrations will not be approved by the European side, given that Russia is waging a large-scale war in Europe," Kallas said.

She also warned other EU member governments against sending delegations to the event. /CNA
