Serbia Expects Attack Risk Amid Regional Military Drills
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić warns of possible military threat from Croatia–Albania–Kosovo coordination, citing defense cooperation and regional tensions in Western Balkans.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić has stated that Belgrade is preparing for a potential military attack, citing increased defense cooperation among Croatia, Albania, and Kosovo. He emphasized that these countries are awaiting a favorable moment and that Serbia is strengthening its defenses. The concern stems from a trilateral defense cooperation declaration signed in Tirana on March 18, 2025, aimed at enhancing military interoperability and regional security. Vučić highlighted Serbia’s advanced military capabilities, including Chinese hypersonic missile systems, and reiterated a policy of military neutrality despite good relations with NATO. His comments come amid ongoing debates over defense policies and military modernization in the Western Balkans, where historical tensions and shifting alliances continue to influence security dynamics.
