Jeremic, who is visiting China, stated to Fonet news agency that they discussed the issue of Kosovo-Metohija in order to harmonise a joint stand at an international level.
This relates above all to the UN but also other international organisations which Pristina authorities might attempt to join, a right that belongs only to sovereign countries, said Jeremic.
China is one of the most influential countries in the world today and support from Beijing is invaluable. It is a great encouragement for Serbia to continue its efforts to preserve its sovereignty, he said.
He said that he talked with Jiechi about intensifying economic cooperation, primarily in infrastructure investment in Serbia in the transport and energy sectors.
New joint projects can be expected in the future, he said.
We are pleased with the fact that of all the countries in the Balkans we have very special relations with China, based on a strategic partnership agreement, which was signed last year during a visit by Serbian President Boris Tadic to China, concluded Jeremic.
