She said the agenda of her meeting with Oquaye included the status of Kosovo and the state of Serbia’s heritage there which.

Oquaye said he advocated an improvement of the relations between Ghana and Serbia in the areas the two countries cooperated during the Non-Alignment Movement, adding the road to collaboration in other fields, like defence and agriculture, should be built.
