China ships weapons to Serbia – rattling nerves in the West
Six Chinese planes, allegedly carrying HQ-22 surface-to-air missiles, landed in Belgrade Saturday to deliver equipment under an agreement between nations.
Western media claimed the delivery raised fears of a military buildup and could “threaten the fragile peace” in the Balkans.
Earlier, the US officials warned Serbia against purchasing HQ-22 systems, saying it must align its military equipment with Western weaponry if it wants to join the European Union or NATO.
