During his stay in Washington D.C., Director of the Office for Public and Cultural Diplomacy Arno Gujon met with several members of the US Congress with whom he discussed the position of the Serbian people in Kosovo and Metohija, the current geopolitical circumstances and the importance of developing the strategic dialogue between Serbia and the United States.

Importance of developing strategic dialogue between Serbia, US
Belgrade,
8 March 2026
In the US capital, Gujon spoke with Congressmen Randy Fine, Andy Ogles, Keith Self, Ryan Zinke and Byron Donalds, and had the opportunity to meet with Congresswoman Anna Pauline Luna, who is one of the organisers of the Alliance of Sovereign Nations summit, which was held in Washington D.C., a few days ago.
During the meetings, Gujon pointed out the challenges that Serbs face in Kosovo and Metohija, as well as the increasingly difficult position of the Serbian people in Serbia’s southern province, especially in the context of the new law on foreigners adopted by Priština, which, as he assessed, could become another instrument of administrative pressure and institutional persecution of the Serbs.
Such conversations are of particular importance because they allow the voice of the Serbian people and the position of Serbia to be heard directly in places where important political decisions are made. My interlocutors listened with great attention to the challenges that Serbs face in Kosovo and Metohija, as well as my concerns about the increasingly difficult position of Serbian people in the southern province, Gujon stated.
He added that during the meetings, opinions were also exchanged on the broader geopolitical context, as well as on the importance of launching a strategic dialogue between Serbia and the United States.
The Alliance of Sovereign Nations summit was attended by political leaders, congressmen and experts from the United States and Europe who advocate the policy of state sovereignty.
Gujon also spoke at the summit, representing the Republic of Serbia on a panel dedicated to energy security, according to a statement from the Office of Public and Cultural Diplomacy.
