Serbia wants to sell military equipment to Pakistan

BELGRADE: Serbia wants to conclude an agreement with Pakistan that would enable the export of its military equipment to the country, Defence Minister Aleksandar Vucic said Monday.

"What we can offer and what they are interested in are armoured vehicles, large calibre ammunition, assault rifles and night-vision equipment," Vucic said after the meeting with Defence Minister Naveed Qamar.

Qamar said the details of a potential accord would be known after a Serbian delegation visits Pakistan, planned in the coming months.

For several years, Serbia has been trying to increase its military industry's exports, notably of ammunition, rifles, explosives and small planes.

According to the latest official data, these exports have increased in value to $247 million from $75 million some five years ago.

For heaven's sake everyone stop demonizing the Serbs! The Bosnian Muslims and Kosovo Liberation thugs committed a lot of genocide and ethnic cleansing against the Serb people but I don't see anyone here condemn those. The Serbs were the victims of a Western media smear campaign and even Westerners understand that now. It is completely unacceptable for people in this discussion thread to spew venom against the Serb people and just focus on maintaining commercial and defense ties with that country.

The delegation from Serbia should be immediately arrested when they visit Pakistan for war crimes against humanity.
