Serbia determined to further improve cooperation with China

Belgrade, 20 September 2023

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic assessed today in a meeting with first-ranking vice chairperson of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of China Li Hongzhong that Serbia and China are bound by steely friendship and good political cooperation, as well as a comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries.

Brnabic pointed out that the bilateral relations between Serbia and China are constantly on the rise, thanks primarily to the friendly relations between the officials of the two countries.

Assessing that cooperation has experienced a historic rise in recent years, she also pointed to the fact that China is the second largest foreign trade partner and investor in Serbia.

Serbia is determined to further improve cooperation with China, said the Prime Minister and highlighted the importance of the most important Chinese investments and the implementation of large projects, primarily railway and traffic infrastructure.

According to her, Serbia will continue to provide active and strong support to the global "Belt and Road" initiative, as well as the China-CEEC cooperation mechanism.

Hongzhong conveyed the greetings of Chinese Premier Li Qiang, and added that high political cooperation is the result of steely friendship between the two countries, but also practical cooperation for which Serbia and China are strongly committed.

Emphasising that the Chinese government will continue to encourage new investments in Serbia, he praised the stable climate for cooperation and attracting foreign companies.

Hongzhong pointed out that China will persist in its consistent stance and support for the territorial integrity and sovereignty of our country.

Prime Minister expressed the expectation that the two countries will improve cooperation in the fields of technological innovation and biotechnology, as well as the IT sector, which has already become the largest exporter and the fastest growing sector in Serbia.
