Vucic starts visit to Germany's Hesse state
This is the second visit to the German state by a Serbian prime minister. In early December 2002, Hesse welcomed the then prime minister Zoran Djindjic, Tanjug reported.Bouffier is a very important figure in the political life of Germany, as he is not just chairman of Hesse's Christian Democratic Union (CDU), but also deputy to its leader Angela Merkel.
Four companies from Hesse invested in Serbia - STADA in Hemofarm, Fresenius, NORMA Group and IGB Bauering.
Serbia's exports to Hesse reached EUR 164 million last year, and imports from this German federal state EUR 125 million.
The GDP of Hesse, which has a population of 6.1 million, stands at EUR 225 billion, which is seven times higher than Serbia's GDP.
The Serbian prime minister will then go to Frankfurt to talk with Minister of Economics of the federal state of Hesse Tarek Al-Wazir, tour the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Frankfurt.
In the afternoon hours, Vucic will attend the opening of a Serbian-German business forum in Frankfurt, take part in a plenary session and panel discussion titled “Framework conditions and financial possibilities”.
After the forum, the Serbian prime minister will have several bilateral meetings with managers of the German companies Rhenus Port Logistics GmbH & Co. KG, Messer Industriegase GmbH, Fresenius and Reverse Logistic Group.
