Brnabic pointed out that cooperation with the Council is important for Serbia because it contributes to the further development of relations in the region, which is of key importance for faster progress on the European path of Serbia and the entire region.
Epidemiological circumstances have further strengthened the awareness of the importance of stronger regional connections in the coming period, it was stated at the meeting. One example of this is the establishment of green corridors for faster and easier transport of goods in the region.
As an example, the initiative of "green corridors" was stated - international transport lines for the transport of food and other necessary goods - especially food, medicine and medical equipment in the region, during the blockade caused by the outbreak of coronavirus.
Bregu welcomed the effort to enable the vaccination of the citizens of the region in Serbia, in order to help overcome the crisis as quickly as possible, achieve faster immunisation and economic recovery.
Bregu pointed out that progress has been made in abolishing roaming charges for mobile telephony in telephone traffic in the Western Balkans, which will take effect next month.
The Prime Minister also pointed out the benefits of the "Mini Schengen"
initiative, through which the region can progress, achieve greater economic growth and be more reliable and attractive to foreign investors.
Brnabic and Bregu pointed out that regional cooperation will also be the topic of the upcoming summit of the Western Balkans within the Berlin Process, which will soon be held in Germany.
