“My sincerest congratulations on your election for Speaker of the Croatian Parliament and I wish you success in discharging the duties of this high office.

I am sure that your coming mandate, begun soon after the constitution of the new legislature of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia, will contribute to the advancement of our bilateral cooperation, especially at the interparliamentary level, starting from the principles that maintain our common European values, in our mutual interest.

The improvement of relations between the representatives of the citizens, I am sure, is a solid foundation for fostering trust in the interest of stability and progress of the entire region in facing up to common and even global challenges.”
