Serbia keeps up with EU in its priorities

Belgrade/Davos, 24 January 2018

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic assessed today, on the basis of statements of high officials at the World Economic Forum in Davos, that Serbia is keeping up with Europe and the most advanced EU states for the first time when it comes to priorities.

Brnabic pointed out that German Chancellor Angela Merkel dedicated 80 percent of her speech to the importance of digitization for Germany and Europe, adding that it is our pleasure to hear those plans and to confirm that our priorities are also priorities for both Germany and Europe.

She said that she was particularly pleased to hear praise for the work of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, pointing out that Italian Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni said he was pleased to see his friend Vucic among the participants, and underlined the significance of Serbia in the constructive solution to the migrant crisis.

It is great to see that the participants in the opening speeches recognized the importance of Serbia in the constructive resolution of the migrant crisis, and that in the address of Chancellor Merkel we saw that we are on the right track with digitization. It is a new paradigm of economic development, Brnabic stated.

She said that the Serbian delegation had many bilateral political and economic meetings, and that she, together with President Vucic, heard today in the Congress Hall the speeches of German Chancellor Merkel, Italian Prime Minister Gentiloni and French President Emmanuel Macron.

The Prime Minister announced that she will have a joint meeting with Martina Larkin from the World Economic Forum, and that the President tomorrow will have more political meetings, while she will talk with businessmen and companies that invested, or want to invest in Serbia.

This is especially important to me because, as my predecessor, the President had also talked in Davos with some investors who came to invest in Serbia two or three years later, she pointed out and reminded that one of such investors is Kromberg & Schubert.

This is a great opportunity for us to present Serbia and that investors come after Davos through contacts made there, Brnabic concluded.
