The two ministers expressed mutual satisfaction over the development of relations between the two countries which are tied by a traditional and sincere friendship.

They agreed that there is significant room for the further improvement of bilateral cooperation, first of all in the field of the economy.

Dacic and Shoukry concluded that the holding of a Mixed Committee for Economic Cooperation could give an important impetus to the development of economic relations of Serbia and Egypt and agreed to hold it as soon as the situation in both countries gets stabilised.

The two officials also noted that in the coming period, after the coronavirus epidemic ends, it is necessary to carry on with the continuity of political dialogue between the two countries at the high and highest level.

Dacic informed Shoukry about the current situation in Serbia and the measures taken to curb the coronavirus and underlined that the improvement of the epidemiological situation has led to a gradual lifting of restrictions and the opening of borders.
