Serbian foreign minister reveals his favorite counterpart

"I'm not saying it for political reasons or because of Russophilia, but because our meetings are always pleasant, we socialize nicely," Dacic said.

When the interviewer remarked that he cared about Lavrov "because of (Russian MFA spokesperson Maria) Zakharova, with whom he exchanges personal gifts," Dacic said that there was "some truth in that."

"She will be among the first to whom I will wish all the best in the new year. We also agreed that she should visit Belgrade in March," he said.

According to the minister, it is of great importance for Serbia that he has at least two meetings a year with Lavrov, in Belgrade and in Moscow, and added that he was "attempting to establish that with China, too."

During informal meetings, a lot can be discovered about people who publicly mostly wear a strict diplomatic facade, Dacic continued.

Thus, he revealed, "his great friend and one of the greatest friends of the Serbian people," Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, "performs the jazz variant of the song 'Moscow Nights' excellently."

"I send him Gorki List (bitter) and quince (brandy) regularly. But, since he became defense minister, he's been using that less. The advantage of my manner of communication with my colleagues is that I don't need formal bilateral meetings, I talk to them in every place, wherever we meet," Dacic said.

Bliski istok, zbog promene ravnoteže snaga i dubokih kriza, pre svega palestinsko-izraelske, može se smatrati buretom baruta i ima potencijal da dovede ne samo do regionalnog sukoba, već i do globalnog konflikta.
