The Serbian Prime Minister said that only respect for basic principles of international law guarantees stability and peace, not only in the region, but in the whole world.

Wang Zhongyu said that China endorses respect for the UN Charter and UN Security Council Resolution 1244, and pointed out that China, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, will have a constructive role in the resolution of Kosovo's status.

He highlighted that Serbia and China cherish very friendly ties and China attaches great importance to relations with Serbia.

The meeting especially focused on further development of economic relations between the two countries. Concrete forms of cooperation in various fields were discussed and both sides expressed interest in intensifying economic cooperation.
