Serbian President Boris Tadic met in Cairo this morning with his Egyptian counterpart Hosni Mubarak. Tadic received assurances on Wednesday from Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak that his country would remain firm in its resolve not to recognize the unilaterally declared independence of Kosovo. Mubarak: Egypt will not recognize Kosovo Tadic and Mubarak agreed that all global problems should be resolved within the United Nations. The two presidents focused on a series of issues of interest to both countries, including bilateral and, especially economic and trade cooperation, as well as the issue of Kosovo and Metohija. Tadic presented the idea that Belgrade hosts the summit of the Non-Aligned Movement in 2011 on the 50th anniversary of the foundation of this movement. Mubarak described the idea as interesting to Egypt and said it would officially be presented at the next Non-Alligned Movement conference, to be held in Egypt's resort Sharm El-Sheikh in June. The two presidents also discussed the challenges of the global financial crisis, as well as the expansion of economic cooperation between Serbia and Egypt for which, both sides concluded, there exist great possibilities. In that context, Tadic initiated the signing of a free trade agreement between Serbia and Egypt. The Egyptian president welcomed his Serbian counterpart this morning outside the Presidential Palace in Cairo with full state honors. Tadic began the two-day official visit to Egypt this morning with a visit to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, where he laid a wreath at the grave of former Egyptian President Anwar el Sadat. Tadic will also be meeting with Egyptian Prime Minister Ahmed Nazif and the secretary-general of the Arab League, Amr Moussa, the president's press bureau announced earlier. Alongside Tadic in the Serbian delegation are Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremic and Trade and Services Minister Slobodan Milosavljevic.
