Connecting regional market while protecting national interests

Novi Sad, 15 April 2024

Minister of Domestic and Foreign Trade Tomislav Momirovic said today at the Regional Conference "One Region – One Market" in Novi Sad that Serbia has invested a lot in bringing the peoples of the Balkans closer together and connecting the economies, in order to jointly build a better future for all.

Momirovic said that we will continue to work to connect our markets, but also to protect our interests.

The challenges in Europe and the world are great, and if we do not focus on the interests of our people, on building the economy of the entire region together, we will face a big problem, Momirovic pointed out and added that the government of Serbia strongly supports the private sector and believes in free flow of people and goods, without which there is no development and no future.

He said that Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina have an economic exchange of approximately €3 billion, adding that we want the opening of new factories, better jobs for citizens, new technologies and more investments.

I hope that the people from the region will recognise this, that they will turn to their friends and that we will be partners, Momirovic said.

Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations of Bosnia and Herzegovina Stasa Kosarac said that everyone has economic challenges, but that both Serbia and Republika Srpska have continuously been dealing with political issues over the past months.

Kosarac added that it primarily refers to the resolution on Srebrnica, which is a serious political issue directed against the interests of the Serbian people in Serbia, as well as in Republika Srpska, that is, Bosnia and Herzegovina and against all Serbs.
