High Cooperation Council strengthens partnership between Serbia, Turkey

Belgrade, 11 January 2022

Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikola Selakovic spoke by phone today with Minister of Foreign Affairs of Turkey Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu on holding the third session of the High Cooperation Council, scheduled for 18 January in Turkey.

Selakovic pointed out that Serbia attaches great importance to the work of that council and that it is interested in signing as many agreements as possible during the upcoming session.

The Minister pointed out that the work of the High Council for Cooperation strengthened the partnership between Serbia and Turkey, which was visible after the second session during the visit of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Serbia in October 2019.

In the conversation, the head of Serbian diplomacy referred to the achieved level of bilateral relations between Serbia and Turkey, stating that they are at the highest level in recent history, which was greatly contributed by the exceptional personal and professional relations between the presidents of the two countries.

The officials also discussed the current political situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Selakovic conveyed the view that the political crisis in Bosnia-Herzegovina can only be resolved through dialogue, in line with the Dayton Accords, and that any attempt to unilaterally impose a solution has never brought anything good.
