Associates of former Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić reach Moscow on second attempt after first flight is turned back over Lithuania

On November 3, 2026, a flight operated by Air Serbia from Belgrade to Moscow, flight number JU134, encountered an unexpected turn of events. The aircraft was forced to turn around over Lithuania and return to Belgrade for security reasons. The three Serbian political figures on board - former Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Vulin, SNP founder Nenad Popović, and Srbijagas director Dušan Bajatović - were reportedly attempting to leave the country.

The security issue arose after Vulin allegedly boarded the plane without proper security screening. The Serbian Deputy Prime Minister strongly denied the allegation of security violation. The flight eventually reached Moscow on the morning of November 4.
