Four Air Serbia aircraft carry our country's assistance to Italy

Belgrade, 25 April 2020

President of the Republic of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic and Minister of European Integration Jadranka Joksimovic attended today the shipment of a shipment of medical equipment donated by Serbia to Italy to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.

Four Air Serbia aircraft with medical equipment have flown to Belgrade from Italy, and Minister Joksimovic is in one of the planes, who will personally hand over the donation to Italian Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio.

Vucic emphasised that Italy is a great friend of Serbia and that it assisted our country whenever needed.

He reminded that in our country there are a large number of Italian companies that employ thousands of workers and provide livelihood for their families.

The President wrote on one of the packages: We will win together, brave Italy, Serbia is with you!

The help that our country is sending is part of European solidarity, but it is also an opportunity for Serbia to show that it can say thank you for everything Italy has done for Serbia, Vucic said, adding that the country had always provided unbridled support on our European path.

The donation contains two million surgical and epidemiological masks, 100,000 protective suits, a million gloves, he said.

Italian Ambassador to Serbia Carlo Lo Cascio said that Serbia's generous assistance will be of great benefit to those who are on the front lines and are struggling to save every life.

He conveyed to all Serbian citizens the greetings of Italian President Sergio Mattarella.

Four planes carrying medical aid flew to Italy from Nikola Tesla airport today, while two more will depart tomorrow and the day after.
