Columnist Ljiljana Smajlovic tells RTS that as a citizen of Serbia, she cannot help but wonder what the US is looking for in return if they support the abolition of tariffs.

Smajlovic says she is surprised by President Vucic's meeting with Mike Pompeo because it is rare that Serbian presidents or ministers have a meeting with such high-ranking US officials.

Serbian public broadcaster RTS reports that Following a meeting between US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, the State Department issued a statement.

RTS conveyed the whole statement.

Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic thinks Serbia has a "big hole in diplomatic relations, because it underestimates some countries" - that are her friends.

Speaking for TV Pink, Dacic said this concerns those countries to whom "(Yugoslav president) Tito still means something," and who have "great positive memories from past relations with Yugoslavia."

"If you never go to Bangladesh in 20 years, then they lose the understanding that some issues are important for you," the minister said.
