FM: Relations between Serbia and US positive, despite challenges

 In his online lecture about Serbia – US relations within the two countries' academy for leaders, Dacic said he saw the US as "an important partner in reaching a lasting solution," acceptable to both Belgrade and Pristina, reiterating his country "remains open to further talks."

"Looking at our relations, one should be realistic and admit that asymmetry has always been there. But, despite that, Serbia has shown that a small country can be an American ally and an important friend," Dacic said.

Thus, he added, the Belgrade – Washington relations should be looked at on a broader perspective and "point out examples from our common history as the best way to change wrong perceptions we have created about each other."

Dacic recalled that Serbia and America would mark 140 years of diplomatic relations in 2021.
