The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, said that Belgrade does not recognize the results of pseudo-referendums organized by Russia in the Ukrainian territories occupied by it.

"Serbia... does not recognize this, as it adheres to international law, the UN Charter and UN resolutions," Vucic said.

"We protect our own territorial integrity, and it is in our interests to protect the territorial integrity of other internationally recognized countries," he added.

Serbia, a candidate for European Union membership, is completely dependent on Russia for natural gas supplies and has refused to join Western sanctions against Moscow over its actions in Ukraine.
