The officials agreed that cooperation on the construction of Corridor 10 is going according to plan and without any problems.

They also discussed the construction of the new Nis-Merdare-Pristina highway, where work on the first section, from Nis to Plocnik will begin next year.

Speaking about rail traffic, Mihajlovic emphasised that railways are a strategically important sector for the government of Serbia.
