"Dear Mr. Minister, My sincere congratulations on your appointment as Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Hellenic Republic. I wish you successful discharge of your very responsible duties. I take this opportunity to draw your attention to the fact that the bilateral cooperation between our two friendly countries has always been intensive to a greater or lesser extent. In the last three years this cooperation has been on an ascending line again and has seen numerous bilateral visits, new multilateral formats (quadrilateral with Romania and Bulgaria), consolidated cooperation both on regional and European levels and a permanent format of cooperation between the two governments in the form of High-Level Cooperation Council between Serbia and Greece. New challenges are ahead of us in order to expand the efforts made so far to develop our bilateral co-operation which would result in even closer relations between Serbian and Greek peoples, as well as in the development of economic cooperation between our two countries. I believe that the best way would be signing of the Serbia-Greece Strategic Partnership Agreement already at the next meeting of the High-Level Cooperation Council. On the other hand, I believe that there is still ample room for the establishment of new types of multilateral forums, in the trilateral format between Serbia, Greece and Cyprus in the first place. In order to continue our cooperation and proceed along the aforementioned lines, I suggest that, as soon as your schedule so permits, we organize our meeting and exchange information on what has been done so far and agree on further continuation of cooperation. I look forward to our cooperation and new opportunity to bring our two brotherly countries closer together ", the Head of Serbian diplomacy writes in his congratulatory message. First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Serbia Ivica Dacic sent a message of congratulation this evening to Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias on the occasion of his appointment to the post.
