Decades of sincere friendship between Serbia, Ghana

Belgrade/Accra, 8 July 2022

Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikola Selakovic met today in Accra with Minister of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration of Ghana Shirley Botchway.

Selakovic noted with satisfaction that there are no outstanding issues in our bilateral relations, but, as he emphasised, they are characterised by decades of friendship, respect and full mutual understanding on the most important issues.

According to him, the political relations of the two countries are not only based on a long tradition, which goes back to the founding of the Non-Aligned Movement, but also on the fact that we are loyal to the same values in international relations.

In this sense, Selakovic thanked for the support that Ghana provides to Serbia regarding Kosovo and Metohija.

The Minister pointed out that our willingness to improve bilateral relations was also confirmed by the decision to reopen the Embassy of Serbia in Accra after 21 years, and expressed the hope that Ghana will soon restore the work of its embassy in Belgrade.

Selakovic noted that the intensification of bilateral contacts at all levels provides the possibility of cooperation in numerous areas, and according to the minister, in particular, we should work on improving economic cooperation, pointing to the potential in agriculture, construction, water management, IT and other areas.

Selakovic and Botchway signed the Agreement on the abolition of visas for diplomatic and official passports, and later today they will jointly attend the official opening of the Serbian Embassy in Accra, according to a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
