2025 Victory Day in Moscow: Focal Point of Both Diplomatic Defiance and Regional Anxiety
Wednesday, 7 May 2025 () The plane carrying Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić to Moscow for Russia's Victory Day celebrations on May 9 was forced to make an unscheduled landing in Baku, Azerbaijan, amid reports of airspace closures and regional tensions. Initially, Serbian media attributed the diversion to the temporary closure of Moscow's airports due to security concerns. However, later updates clarified that the landing had been pre-planned for refueling purposes. After a brief stop in Baku, the aircraft resumed its journey toward Moscow. President Vučić, under mounting international pressure not to attend the celebrations amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict, reaffirmed his decision to participate in the 80th anniversary of Victory Day in the Russian capital. "I told [Russian President Vladimir] Putin that I would come to Russia on May 9. A promise is a promise — I made it to my people and to everyone,” Vučić stated.
