Serbian ambassador says strategic dialogue with US discussed

Djuric told Belgrade daily Kurir that the dialogue would be “a significant step forward in our relations and a new stage in institutional cooperation”. According to the ambassador, a concrete mechanism would be set up for regular cooperation and links between institutions with the goal of a liberalization of the visa regime with the US and a double-taxation agreement.

He said that the fact that a visa liberalization was being discussed is a very positive signal but added that he can’t speak about deadlines. “I am convinced that our police and border police can very quickly meet the required standards,” he said.
