Brnabic pointed out that bilateral relations between Serbia and France have been raised to a higher level in the last few years, and that our country is firmly committed to further improving overall political and economic relations, traditional partnership and friendship between the two countries.
The Prime Minister expressed gratitude for the support that France provides to the European integration of Serbia and the region of the Western Balkans.

As examples, Brnabic cited cooperation with French companies on projects for the construction of a new waste management centre in Vinca and concessions for Nikola Tesla Airport, as well as the project for the construction of the Belgrade tube.
Members of the France-Western Balkans Friendship Group in the French Senate said that Serbia can count on France's support when it comes to European integration, and that the entire Western Balkans region is extremely important for that country.
They emphasised that France greatly appreciates Serbia's contribution to EU peacekeeping missions.
It was pointed out in the conversation that the two sides are committed to further intensifying economic cooperation, and France is ready to further support projects in the field of environmental protection and the circular economy.
