Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Friday that Turskih President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s visit to Belgrade helps reinforce relations between the two countries.
“On the political agenda, this visit gives momentum to strengthening the relations between our two countries, thereby contributing to stability in the Western Balkans, a region that has rarely been burdened with conflicts and tensions throughout history, hungry for peace and genuine prosperity. Turkey and Serbia have a long history of cooperation, and meetings like these provide an opportunity to deepen these ties, especially in the area of security and economy,” Vucic wrote in an Instagram post.
Erdogan’s visit is “a significant step towards strengthening bilateral ties in challenging times, strengthening the platform for future dialogue and cooperation, as key factors for peace and stability in the Balkans”, he added after a bilateral meeting between the two presidents.
Following his meeting with Vucic held Friday at the Palace of Serbia, Erdogan said that he came to Belgrade after two years to reinvigorate the relations between the two countries, which are “built on solid foundations,” Beta reported.
The Turkish president said the relationship with Serbia has entered a “golden age,” and that economic relations drive the dynamics of cooperation between the two countries.
Erdogan said he and Vucic exchanged views on international and global issues, and on the situation in the Balkans, and stressed that the newly signed agreements between Serbia and Turkey would strengthen contractual obligations between the countries.
Serbian Information and Telecommunications Minister Dejan Ristic and Turkish Directorate of Communications Director Fahrettin Altun signed a memorandum of understanding intended to enhance cooperation in the field of public information.
