At the sitting held on 13 February, the Foreign Affairs Committee conducted an interview with the new Ambassador of the Republic of Serbia to the Republic of Poland, Radojko Bogojevic. The sitting was chaired by Prof. Dr Dragoljub Micunovic, Committee Chairman.

In his opening address Ambassador Bogojevic stressed that strengthening political dialogue with Poland on all levels and intensifying bilateral cooperation in all areas will be his priority. Poland, as a member of the European Union, NATO and the Group of six most developed EU countries, is an important international partner for Serbia.

Bogojevic said that Poland also expresses a desire for closer cooperation with Serbia which it views as the key country in the region. With that in mind, several bilateral agreements on cooperation in various sectors will be signed in the upcoming period.

The Ambassador said that his future activities will stem from Serbia’s foreign policy priorities, namely the issues concerning Kosovo-Metohija and Serbia’s accession to the European Union.

The Committee members accepted Ambassador Bogojevic’s proposals and suggested furthering economic cooperation and cultural relations with Poland in the upcoming period.

The composition of the delegation to talk on 19 February with the members of the United Kingdom parliamentary delegation visiting Serbia from 18 to 20 February, was also determined at the sitting. Also, the invitation for the National Assembly to participate at the OSCE PA winter session was accepted, which will be held in Vienna on 19 and 20 February.
