Serbia will not become a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) or the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO); it must ensure its own security, although this is difficult, Serbian Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Vulin told Sputnik.
"Serbia strictly adheres to the policy of military neutrality. This means that we will not expand our participation in any military bloc. And we will try to maintain the best relations with everyone, first of all — with the countries in our neighborhood. So Serbia will not become a member of NATO, will not be a member of the CSTO," Vulin said.
This is the most difficult path for a country the size of Serbia to take, according to the official.
"We must guarantee our own security, which is not easy. But this is the most honest path — to make decisions about ourselves," he emphasized.
