Serbian Prime Minister Mirko Cvetkovic and Romanian Prime Minister Calin Popescu-Tariceanu today agreed to organise a trilateral meeting with Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi regarding Serbia’s integration into Europe.
Tariceanu, who is on an official one-day visit, told journalists that he presented Prime Minister Berlusconi the idea of trilateral meeting in Belgrade.
Afterwards, Romanian Minister of Trade and Tourism Ovidiu Silagh and Serbian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Regional Development Mladjan Dinkic signed an agreement on economic, scientific and technical cooperation.
The Romanian Prime Minister said that the meeting should prove that Romania and Italy support Serbia’s EU accession, showing Serbia has two strong supporters in their EU integration process.
We would like to show that, apart from words of support, we also have something concrete to offer to Serbia, stressed the Romanian Prime Minister.
Cvetkovic accepted the idea and said that such a meeting would be a good platform for affirmation of support to Serbia’s EU integration.
He appreciated Romanian assistance to Serbia, regarding not only the EU integration process, but also Serbia’s struggle for the preservation of its territorial integrity and sovereignty.
