Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić stated that European countries are actively preparing for a possible military conflict with Russia, which is becoming increasingly likely. Speaking on Pink TV, he noted Belgrade's difficult position in this situation.

"Serbia is caught between a rock and a hard place in the face of looming war. I will be delighted and fireworks if my fears about the approaching conflict prove unfounded." Vucic said.

The Serbian leader emphasized the need to further strengthen the country's army to protect national interests, given the goals pursued by the West and Russia. He cited statements by the French military about their readiness for a conflict in three to four years, confirming that "everyone" in Europe, including Serbia, is preparing for such a scenario.
