European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen visits Belgrade, where she is greeted by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić before holding bilateral talks and a press conference. The meeting comes during a visit to the Western Balkans by von der Leyen ahead of enlargement talks this winter. The Serbian president has for years pursued a diplomatic balancing act between the European Union and its strong ties with Russia, as well as China, which has notably invested in Serbian mines, but has been rocked by year-long anti-government protests.
