Strengthening bilateral cooperation with Namibia

Belgrade/Windhoek, 21 August 2021

Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikola Selakovic talked today with President of Namibia Hage Geingob and Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila about deepening bilateral cooperation between the two countries.

During Selakovic's meeting with President Geingob, it was stated that the two countries are bound by traditional friendship and mutual support, and that there is a common interest in improving economic cooperation.

The Minister pointed out that Serbia is interested in the comprehensive improvement of political dialogue through the exchange of high-level visits, saying that the two countries have a mutual interest in cooperating at the multilateral level.

Selakovic also expressed gratitude for Namibia's support for Serbia's territorial integrity and sovereignty.

He stated that Serbian companies are ready to return to the African continent after a long time, and that the economic relations between Serbia and Namibia can be significantly improved in numerous areas, such as infrastructure, agriculture, mining and pharmaceutical industry.

Selakovic informed his interlocutor about the upcoming celebration of the 60th anniversary of the first conference of the Non-Aligned Movement in Belgrade and voiced hope that the Foreign Minister of Namibia will also be Serbia's guest on that occasion.

Today, he and Foreign Minister of Namibia Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah signed an Agreement on the donation of Serbia to that African country, which consists of 30,000 doses of the Sputnik V vaccine against coronavirus.

Nandi-Ndaitwah expressed the country's great gratitude for the help in the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, emphasising that with this donation, Namibia will be a step closer to victory over the coronavirus, which can only be done with immunisation of the population.
