Djuric: Improving Relations with Croatia Is in Serbia's Interest Despite Political Challenges

"When you look at the map, the areas where part of our people still live, as well as our vital economic, security, and other interests – you will see that improving relations with Croatia is important for the overall picture of our region," Djuric said in a morning program on RTS.

He expressed satisfaction that Serbia has established quality cooperation with the government of Andrej Plenkovic.

"We have already gone through a period of mutual acquaintance. We’ve overcome certain challenges, and I hope that this will lead to better economic and political cooperation in the future. Despite all the differences we have related to recent history, I would say that when we talk about the future, we have far more reasons to cooperate than to divide," Djuric added.

"Finding the Best Solutions for NIS"

Regarding the imposition of U.S. sanctions on Russian entities, which also includes the Serbian Oil Industry (NIS), the Serbian Foreign Minister emphasized that Serbia will insist on respecting principles and fair negotiations in these circumstances.

"Our government has already started technical negotiations with American partners, and we are working on finding the best solutions for the country," Djuric said.

He stated that the situation for Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija is extremely difficult, in light of the latest developments ahead of parliamentary elections in the province.

"Under the regime of Albin Kurti, we are witnessing gross violations of human rights and international agreements. The people in Kosovo and Metohija have hardly seen worse days since World War II than those under Kurti's regime. It is important for our people to remain united and for the Serbian List to participate in the elections so that we show that we will not retreat," Djuric emphasized.
