Serbia Won’t Join EU Sanctions Against Russia, Vucic Says

Serbia won’t join European Union sanctions against Russia even as the Balkan nation sticks to its plan to continue membership talks with the world’s largest trading bloc, Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic said.

The Balkan nation is taking “very seriously” the message that EU aspiring members should refrain from exploring new trade opportunities after Russia banned EU sales of food products, Vucic said at a news conference in Belgrade today.
