Djuric to Newsmax Balkans: Serbs seek a new chapter with the U.S. and aim to seize every opportunity

In an interview for the program "Stav nedelje" (Viewpoint of the Week), Djuric welcomed the U.S. decision to grant the company MOL an additional two months to resolve the issue concerning NIS, emphasizing that "it is of exceptional importance for Serbia that, in cooperation with the U.S. administration, mechanisms have been found to protect Serbian national interests in the energy sector."

Speaking about current geopolitical developments, Djuric assessed that conflicts in Europe and global tensions are not good news for the continent, especially for small and medium-sized countries.

"Over the past year, we have maintained an intensive dialogue with the top levels of the U.S. administration, explaining Serbia’s position, and I believe we have succeeded in creating a positive climate that has historically existed between our countries", the minister said, adding that he believes this was "taken into account when the decision was made to extend supply licenses for the company NIS, which still has majority Russian ownership".

Djuric emphasized that he is proud, both as a former ambassador and now as foreign minister, to be working on improving Serbian-American relations, noting that it is in Serbia’s interest to strengthen its position in Washington, enhance instruments of cooperation, and elevate the role of the Serbian community in the United States.

"It is no secret that Serbs in the United States overwhelmingly supported President Trump’s election and that he enjoys greater popularity in Serbia compared to other parts of Europe", Djuric said.
