"The relationship between Russia
and Serbia is unique, with deep historical roots. For centuries,
the Serbs have been Russia's most trustworthy allies. And we
know it, remember it, and appreciate it," said Russian President
Vladimir Putin, as quoted by Tass, during a meeting with World
Youth Festival participants. Serbia, despite being a candidate
for EU membership, has not joined the European Union's sanctions
against Russia over the Ukraine conflict.
