                <media:description>Russian Marina shows her Russian passport as she poses for a photo in a hostel of Belgrade, on March 17, 2022 - In the weeks following the invasion, Serbia has become a haven for many Russians hoping to escape abroad, with the country providing one of the few regular flights routes into Europe following mass bans across the continent. For centuries, Serbia and Russia have been united by deep fraternal links thanks to their Slavic and Orthodox heritage. And while Serbians have welcomed Russians with open arms, it is not without contradictions. The Russians by and large resettling in Serbia have sought to flee from the catastrophic fallout at home sparked by Putin&apos;s invasion of Ukraine.
