After the meeting, Vulin said that he is especially grateful to Mitsotakis for the position of Greece not to recognise "Kosovo" and that it will remain in positions of international law and strong support for Serbia, as well as for the fact that Greek policy will continue in the direction of the best possible relations with Serbia.
Vulin, who has been the president of the Serbian part of the Mixed Committee with the Hellenic Republic since 2017, pointed out that the help that President Vucic sent on behalf of the Serbian people to the fraternal Greek people and Greece, is met with great and sincere gratitude.
Serbia's help is appreciated here, Prime Minister Mitsotakis recognises it too and he once again expressed great gratitude on behalf of the Greek people and the Greek government for the help Serbia sent in putting out fires that are currently raging in Greece.
He also added that help is always expected from Serbs, because you expect it from those with whom you are closest and with whom you share not only religion and geographical space, but also the same values, stated Vulin.
Vulin added that he was very pleased to be able to convey expressions of solidarity on behalf of the President of Serbia and the Serbian people and show how ready and capable we are to help everyone who needs help.
The Minister of the Interior also said that Mitsotakis expressed his wish to visit Serbia and voiced hope that this will happen in the winter.
Vulin also met with President of the Republic of Greece Katerina Sakelaropoulou, conveying to her the most cordial and sincere greetings and expressions of sincere solidarity from the President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic.
He pointed out that in these difficult moments for Greece, Serbia has shown that it is a sincere friend and ally of the Greek people.
The Minister said that he once again expressed his gratitude to President Sakelaropoulou and the entire Greek people for their principled position when it comes to the non-recognition of the false state of "Kosovo".
The President of Greece pointed out that the Serbian and Greek people are linked by a traditional friendship, which does not consist only of diplomatic support but also of concrete assistance, which was shown in these difficult times for Greece, and underlined that Greece greatly appreciates Serbia’s help in its fight against the raging wildfires.
