Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic welcomed the Iran-US peace deal aimed at ending the war during a telephone conversation with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Tuesday.

Pezeshkian also reaffirmed Iran’s support for Serbia’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity, stressing that Tehran remains committed to its longstanding position on preserving Serbia’s unity and will not be affected by external pressure from the European Union.

President Vucic expressed condolences over the loss of lives during the recent conflict and said Serbia had sent an official representative to attend the funeral ceremony of the martyred Leader. He thanked Iran for its continued support for Serbia’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty. Welcoming the ceasefire memorandum of understanding (MoU) and continued diplomatic engagement, the Serbian president expressed hope that the ongoing negotiations between Iran and the US would reach a successful outcome and help reinforce lasting peace and stability in the Middle East and beyond. Vucic also invited his Iranian counterpart to attend Expo 2027 and called for broader economic cooperation between the two countries.

According to Mehr News, the conversation highlighted the mutual desire to enhance bilateral cooperation and regional stability.
