Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says that Moscow is not opposed to Serbia and the region moving closer to the EU.

But the choice Brussels is putting before them - "either Russia or the West" - is a very wrong policy, Lavrov told Beta agency in an exclusive, wide-ranging interview on the eve of his visit to Serbia this week.

The Russian foreign minister also said that the West had broken a gentlemen's agreement not to expand NATO to the borders of Russia, and now wants pull the Balkans in as well.
