Serbia, the only country in Europe refusing to impose sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, has agreed to supply arms to Kiev, according to a classified Pentagon document. It is possible that Serbia has already supplied the weapons, writes the Reuters news agency.
The document, a summary of European governments’ responses to Ukrainian requests for military training and “lethal aid” or weapons, was one of dozens of classified documents released online in recent weeks.
The document, entitled ‘Europe | Response to Ongoing Russia-Ukraine Conflict’, provides an overview of the ‘evaluated positions’ of 38 European governments in response to Ukrainian requests for military assistance.
