The Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper said that Russians who left their country 
after disagreeing with the invasion of Ukraine are surprised to find supporters 
of President Vladimir Putin in Serbia.

“The new arrivals do not meet with prejudice in Rusophile Serbia unlike others 
who went to Western Europe. They do not have to justify themselves over Putin’s 
war which most of them condemn. They are troubled by a different phenomenon: 
Putin fans in Belgrade,” the daily said.

The daily’s reporter said that a lot of Russian emigres took part in the recent 
protest against the war in Belgrade. The daily said that several thousand 
Russians left their country to live in Belgrade. It recalled that they do not 
need visas to enter the country. “Serbia is a European Union candidate country, 
balancing between East and West and not joining in the EU sanctions. Air Serbia 
is one of the few European airlines still flying to Moscow and Saint 
Petersburg,” it said.

The daily said that Belgrade is one of the preferred destinations for educated 
Russians fleeing their country along with Istanbly, Erevan and Tbilisi. “More 
than 300, mainly IT, companies have moved from Russia and Ukraine to Serbia,” 
it said and added that Serbian media estimated that up to 30,000 Russians have 
moved to the country.
