The Committee members went on to conduct an interview with Sani Dermaku, newly-appointed Ambassador of the Republic of Serbia to the Slovak Republic, before his deployment to diplomatic duty.

The priorities in the upcoming period will be to maintain intensive political dialogue and improve parliamentary cooperation, especially as regards European integration, as well as regional and economic cooperation.
