History
Serbian foreign Minister Vuk Jeremić said after talks in 2010 with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki that Serbia and Iraq share a common stance on international law and issues of territorial integrity and sovereignty.
A rumor was speculated by the media in 1999 during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia when Serbia's Slobodan Milošević and Iraq's Saddam Hussein allegedly negotiated a discreet military alliance that would improve their ability to defy the West and withstand Allied bombing attacks, along with low-profile support from Russia and China, according to reports from London.
