Zelensky arrives in Serbia for first time since taking office

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Belgrade on Friday, marking his first visit to Serbia since becoming president in 2019.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in the Serbian capital Belgrade on Friday. The trip marks his first visit to Serbia since he took office as president in 2019.

The visit comes as Ukraine continues to fight against Russia's invasion and seeks international support for its position. Serbia, for its part, has long maintained close historical and economic ties with Russia, which makes Belgrade's stance on the war more complex compared with other European countries.

The source report does not provide further details on the visit's agenda or planned meetings.
