Let us remind you

Serbian President Vucic arrived in Moscow on the eve of the May 9 parade, despite warnings about the risks to Serbia's accession to the EU.

Before that, UNN reported that Lithuania and Latvia did not allow Vucic's plane to fly through their airspace on the way to Russia.

Back in mid-April, European leaders warned Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic about the consequences of his possible trip to Moscow.

At the same time, Robert Fico arrived in Russia to participate in the events for May 9, despite the flight bans from Latvia and Lithuania. He changed his route to get to Russia through Hungary, Romania, the Black Sea and Georgia.
