Serbian PM meets with Chinese counterpart (Serbian Government, B92)
Prime Minister Ana Brnabic met on Thursday with Chinese Prime Minister Li Keqiang in Dubrovnik. The meeting took place in Croatia during the gathering of the heads of government of the Central and Eastern European Countries and China (16+1).
Brnabic said that bilateral economic cooperation between Serbia and China, "which is getting stronger and more intense month in month out," was discussed, the government announced.
Brnabic told the press after the meeting with Keqiang that total Chinese investments in the projects that have already been implemented, which are in progress and are being planned, have reached EUR 10 billion.
The prime minister stated that she thanked the Chinese Premier for his country’s political support to Serbia, first of all in the matter of preserving territorial integrity and the position of China regarding the holding of the session of the UN Security Council on Kosovo and its stance at that session.
Speaking about the problems in Belgrade-Pristina relations, she pointed out that at the meeting with Li, cooperation, assistance and support were confirmed.
The position of China is that the admission of the so-called "Republic of Kosovo" to any additional international organizations, such as INTERPOL, is absolutely unacceptable. We will continue to work together and continue to keep the interest of Serbia as our friends do, Brnabic said.
The prime minister added that she does not have great expectations from a meeting dedicated to Kosovo and Metohija in Berlin on 29 April, but that Serbia will show there too that it is a reliable, stable and predictable partner.
