Activities on strengthening economic cooperation with Ohio
Belgrade,
7 September 2023
The interlocutors exchanged opinions on modalities for additional improvement of bilateral relations, primarily economic cooperation.
Dacic pointed out that Serbia is determined to strengthen overall relations with the USA, to which the long-term successful cooperation with the Ohio National Guard makes a strong contribution.
He said that Serbia is ready to continue joint engagement with the aim of further strengthening the civil-military and civil-civilian components through the State Partnership Programme with Ohio, along with a series of military-military cooperation activities.
During the talks, an agreement was reached that the continuous intensification of economic cooperation between the Republic of Serbia and the USA is a common goal.
The Serbian Minister of Foreign Affairs emphasised that our country has a strong interest in raising cooperation with Ohio to a significantly higher level, so that, as in our relations with the USA, economic cooperation would be one of the key pillars.
The Memorandum of Understanding, which the Ohio Department of Development signed today with the Chamber of Commerce of Serbia, will certainly contribute to this, he said, adding that this document will also help to network our business communities.
Serbia and Ohio, in accordance with their economic priorities that overlap in many spheres, will be able to intensify mutual cooperation, especially in key areas such as the digital economy, the agricultural and food sector and green energy, Dacic pointed out.
