Minister Dacic welcomed the two Foreign Ministers and thanked them for attending the official reception on the occasion of assumption of duties by President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic.

Minister Dacic thanked his Norwegian counterpart on supporting economic and social reforms, provided by Norway to Serbia through various bilateral cooperation programs, and stressed the need to continue with these reforms.

Minister Brende stressed that Serbia and Norway were friends and partners, whose economic cooperation was rising, and expressed hope that, along with the progress on the European path that Norway strongly supported, Serbia would attract more Norwegian investors.

Considering the situation in the region, the Serbian Foreign Minister reiterated a strong commitment to the policy of regional stability and cooperation. In this regard, they stressed the need to continue the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina.
