High level of strategic partnership with Russian Federation

Belgrade/Moscow, 20 December 2019

First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic met in Moscow today with Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov.

The interlocutors agreed that the relations between the two countries have reached a very high level of strategic partnership and that this is evidenced by the level of trust existing in those relations, as well as in the very intense dynamics of high-level meetings.

Dacic and Lavrov discussed current issues of bilateral cooperation, deepening bilateral ties in all domains, the situation in Kosovo-Metohija, as well as in our region.

Dacic informed his Russian counterpart about the current state of dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, expressing appreciation for the Russian Federation's firm and consistent support for Serbia's territorial integrity and sovereignty.

Both sides expressed satisfaction with multilateral cooperation, emphasising the importance of continuing mutual support in international organisations.

The two officials pointed to the dynamic development of economic cooperation between the two countries in the previous period, to which the work of the Intergovernmental Committee on Trade, Economic and Scientific and Technical Cooperation, chaired by Dacic and Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yury Borisov, has given significant contribution.

Dacic and Borisov also held a meeting in Moscow today to prepare for the next session of the Intergovernmental Committee.
