Improving bilateral relations with United States in all areas of mutual interest

Belgrade, 17 May 2024

Minister of Foreign Affairs Marko Đurić met today with US Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Elizabeth Allen.

After welcoming his guest to Serbia, Đurić referred to the 143-year long tradition of bilateral relations.

Your first official visit to our country comes at an important moment and greatly contributes, not only to the dynamic and versatile political dialogue at the high and highest level, but also to a new era of Serbian-American relations that we have witnessed in the last decade, Đurić stated.

The head of Serbian diplomacy, in addition to the political and economic aspects of cooperation between the two countries, also mentioned military and defence cooperation as one of the strongholds in our relations in recent decades.

We are proud of the partnership of the Serbian Armed Forces and the Ohio National Guard, which, with its diversity, joint commitment and effort, both in the military and in the civilian segment, has in a special way strengthened the ties between our armed forces, governments and institutions, and which has, most importantly, contributed to greater closeness between our peoples, Đurić pointed out.

Recalling Operation Halliard, Serbian scientists in the famous Apollo mission, but also big names like Nikola Tesla and Mihajlo Pupin, who built bridges between Serbia and the United States of America in the old days of our partnership, Đurić expressed his belief that in the future we will continue to improve bilateral relations in all areas of mutual interest, according to a statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
