Deputy Prime Minister for EU integration Bozidar Djelic said today that Belgrade has the potential to become a central point in Europe as it is situated at a crossroads between Danube Corridor 7 and road and rail transport Corridor 10.

Opening a workshop on the subject of cooperation between Danube river ports, water supply and wastewater treatment, Djelic said that Belgrade has two airports and a river port which must be linked to other means of transport.
Belgrade’s ecological problem is that the city’s wastewater goes directly into the Danube and the required treatment plants would cost €600 million, far too large a sum to be allocated from the budget, he said.
The Deputy Prime Minister announced that on 24 September a conference will be held regarding the Danube strategy.
He recalled that the Serbian government adopted the Position of the Republic of Serbia to participate in a comprehensive EU strategy for the Danube region, which will be a platform for the participation of our country in an official conference on the Danube strategy.
Djelic also added that a group comprising representatives of relevant ministries from Belgrade and Vojvodina has been formed.
