“Our President and Supreme Commander-in-Chief Alexander Vucic sends you the warmest greetings and his personal invitation to come to Belgrade, to Serbia to personally see how the Serbian army has gone ahead thanks to your personal participation,” said the Minister of Defense of Serbia Aleksandar Vulin during a meeting with Shoigu.

Vulin expressed the opinion that "the more combat-ready the army of Serbia, the more peace there will be in the Balkans."

Earlier, during a meeting with Armenian Defense Minister David Tonoyan, Shoigu noted the contribution of Armenian engineers and doctors to the normalization of the situation in Syria.
