Stefanovic Meets with Spanish Ambassador to Serbia

The Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee Borko Stefanovic met today at the National Assembly House with Spanish Ambassador to Serbia H.E. Raul Bartolome Molina to discuss the bilateral relations between the two countries.


The officials opined that the bilateral relations between the two countries are becoming ever stronger, a situation greatly helped by the growing number of Spanish investments, direct flights from Serbia to different Spanish towns and the Serbian people’s love of the Spanish language and culture. Stefanovic used the opportunity to thank Spain for its active support, alluding to Serbia’s territorial integrity and sovereignty, and the Ambassador confirmed that this practice would continue and that Spain would carry on supporting Serbia on this issue. The Ambassador sent the message that if there is to be a normalisation of relations between Belgrade and Pristina, the Community of Serb Municipalities has to be established in Kosovo-Metohija, adding that the EU supports this proposal for the continued dialogue. On the other hand, Molina said that it would be useful for Serbia to align its foreign policy with the EU’s and impose sanctions against the Russian Federation which would mitigate its foreign policy position. Stefanovic said that he shares that opinion, but the government has hot show that it does as well.

The Committee Chairman informed the Ambassador about the possible topics of the upcoming plenary session of the National Assembly, stressing that the recent tragedies that shook the nation must be topics of parliamentary discussion, and the officials also spoke about the potential parliamentary elections in Serbia.

The officials went on to discuss the possible meeting of the Spanish Foreign Minister and the Chairman of the National Assembly’s Foreign Affairs Committee in Madrid in late June and the importance of the meeting of the two countries’ high dignitaries other than the heads of state.
