Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic met in Belgrade on Tuesday with Deputy Prime Minister of Moldova in charge of European Integration Iurie Leanca. Vucic emphasized that it was necessary to encourage improvement of political dialogue and economic cooperation between the two countries, since bilateral relations are friendly, but not sufficiently developed

Vucic also expressed his gratitude for the principled position of Moldova not to recognize unilaterally declared independence of Kosovo, and for the country's support on this issue in regional and international organizations.

He also emphasized that Serbia supports the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Moldova, advocating the principle of respecting the sovereignty and territorial integrity of internationally recognized states.

The president informed his interlocutor about the deadlock in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, triggered by (Pristina's) taxes on products from central Serbia, which is contrary to the CEFTA (regional free trade) agreement, signed also by Moldova.

Vucic presented to the Moldovan official the foreign policy of Serbia, which implies the intention of our country to become a member of the European Union, but also to continue to promote its traditional friendship and cooperation with Russia, as well as development of relations with other countries, the president's press service said in a press release.
