National Assembly Speaker Meets with Czech Foreign Minister

The Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia Ana Brnabic met today with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic Jan Lipavsky, to discuss bilateral cooperation and current geopolitical and regional issues.

In the meeting, Speaker Brnabic stressed the importance of deepening relations between Serbia and the Czech Republic, which are based on traditionally friendly and close ties between the two nations. The officials discussed the possibilities for further strengthening of political dialogue and cooperation in a number of fields, especially in economy, trade and energy.

"We are grateful for the Czech Republic’s support to our path to European integration. We believe that the faster integration of the Western Balkans into the EU represents an important step for the stability and prosperity of the whole of Europe," emphasised Brnabic.

The importance of further strengthening parliamentary cooperation was particularly emphasised, which would be significantly advanced by visits at the level of the heads of parliament.

Minister Lipavsky pointed out that the Czech Republic supports Serbia on its European path and that the cooperation between the two countries is constantly on the rise, especially in the area of investments and the economy.
