Belgrade/Athens, 2 November 2021

Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikola Selakovic today, in a conversation with Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias, expressed gratitude for Greece's principled and clear support for preserving Serbia's territorial integrity and sovereignty and our European integration.

Selakovic, who is visiting Greece, said after the meeting with Dendias, that the country supports finding a solution to the Kosovo and Metohija problem through a dialogue on the normalisation of relations, which Belgrade and Pristina are conducting under the auspices of the European Union.

The head of Serbian diplomacy assessed that there are many areas in which we can cooperate, and he expressed confidence that in the coming period, and especially after the next High Council for Cooperation, relations between Serbia and Greece will further deepen and develop.

The relations between Greece and Serbia are not just relations between the two countries, but there is a lot in common that we share throughout history. We have always been on the same side of history and fought for the same system of values, to preserve the sovereign right of our peoples to decide on their future, he said.

The Minister conveyed that an agreement was reached at the meeting that it is necessary to increase trade, specifying that in the first eight months of this year it is slightly higher than €395 million and that, according to the current trend, it will exceed the last pandemic year.

Dendias said that Greece will continue to provide support to Serbia's European path, which, as he stated, belongs to the European family, as well as that Athens supports the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina under the auspices of Brussels.

The Minister expressed gratitude to the Serbian Prime Minister and the Serbian people for their help in extinguishing this year's fires in Greece.

He assessed that the economic relations between the two countries are at a high level, announcing that in two weeks, the Assistant Minister for Economic Diplomacy of Greece will visit Belgrade in order to see the potential for the development of that cooperation.
