Sino-Serbian relations at historic high - foreign ministers
China's support for the sovereignty and the territorial integrity of Serbia and Serbia's support for the One China policy were reiterated at the meeting.The ministers expressed satisfaction with the intensity of political dialogue and agreed to hold regular annual meetings in the future, the Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
The two parties noted the significance of an agreement on a visa-free regime for holders of standard passports, expected to take effect at the beginning of next year.
The visa-free regime is expected to help strengthen overall cooperation, the statement said.
Belt and Road
The Belt and Road concept is a great development potential for Serbia, in particular in terms of infrastructure and boosting investment and overall trade, Ivica Dacic said in Beijing Thursday."We have an opportunity to evolve into a major regional trade hub on the Belt and Road map in this part of Europe," Dacic told a China-CEEC symposium of think-tanks at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
Serbia has a policy of attracting investors, a trained workforce and favorable trade regimes with many countries, to which it can export with import duty facilities and other facilities, he said.
"Serbia is a pillar of regional stability and our citizens have chosen the European path, adopting reforms as the only way to make the economy competitive and reach the European living standards," Dacic said, adding that Serbia was a credible partner.
