In his letter, Lavrov expressed confidence that Russia and Serbia, in the spirit of strategic friendship, will make maximum joint efforts to defeat the COVID-19 pandemic as soon as possible.

Serbian Statehood Day is traditionally celebrated on February 15, along with the Orthodox holiday of the Presentation of the Lord. It was established in memory of the first Serbian uprising in 1804 against the Ottomans, and then the first Serbian Constitution of 1835, adopted on the same day.
