Serbia and Russia "carefully build and guard special ties"

According to a statement, Vulin "highlighted the closeness of the two countries, because they have always been on the same side."

"In the most difficult moments of our history, and yours, we were on the same side. That is what is remembered, that is what defines the future. Therefore we do not have the right to be less courageous than our ancestors," the Serbian minister said, addressing Shoigu, and added:

"You know that Serbia is a military neutral country, but to be military neutral and independent it must be military strong, therefore, your assistance is immensely important. The agreement of reached by presidents Putin and Vucic is also important, and thanks to it we can say that today we have the ability to defend our sky."

"I would like to also thank you personally, I know how much effort and work went into this," said Vulin.

Shoigu thanked him for the invitation to spend Friday's holiday day together.

"73 years ago, our fathers and grandfathers were liberating Belgrade shoulder to shoulder. This is especially important today when many are trying to overwrite history, and when in some countries monuments are raised to those who fought against us and were on the side of fascism. We cannot accept that," Shoigu said, and reminded Vulin that he had promised during their previous meeting in Moscow that the six warplanes Russia has donated to Serbia would be in Belgrade by today's holiday.

"As you can see, they are here. I hope that the planes will be a safe shield and guarantor of Serbia's security and independence," said the Russian defense minister.
