National Assembly Speaker Meets with Togolese Foreign Minister

"The bilateral relations between the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Togo are traditionally friendly, and their intensification would receive a significant impetus to strengthen cooperation in all areas of interest, which both sides are heartily committed to", was the message of today's meeting of the Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia Dr Vladimir Orlic and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Togo Robert Dussey.

In an open and substantive conversation, the officials expressed their willingness to deepen the cooperation between the two parliaments, primarily through the active engagement of the Parliamentary Friendship Group with the Republic of Togo, whose Head Jana Mateovic also attended the meeting. The National Assembly Speaker asked Minister Dussey to convey an invitation to Yawa Djigbodi Tsegan, the Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Togo, stressing that this historic visit would significantly contribute to the overall relations between the two countries.

Dr Orlic said that Serbia deeply appreciates the Republic of Togo’s continued support of our country’s territorial integrity and sovereignty. "Your country's decision not to recognise the unilaterally declared independence of so-called "Kosovo" is extremely important for us and we are deeply grateful for it. Today, that does not just mean being on the same side as Serbia - today it means being on the side of international law," said the National Assembly Speaker. Minister Dussey took the opportunity to thank the leadership of the Republic of Serbia for the "awakened awareness of the importance of defending international law and preserving Kosovo-Metohija as an integral part of the Republic of Serbia". "Serbia and the countries of Africa share strong, decades-long ties and, if this is not already the case, all African countries should stand by Serbia. Rest assured that we are determined to support Serbia in all fields and at every opportunity", said Minister Dussey.

The Speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia expressed satisfaction with the signing of the Agreement on Visa Abolition for Diplomatic and Service Passport Holders between the Government of the Republic of Togo and the Government of the Republic of Serbia, emphasising that this is one of a number of ways in which the cooperation between the two countries can be further improved. In this regard, the officials also discussed strengthening economic cooperation, primarily increasing the volume of trade, as well as cooperation in the fields of agriculture, pharmacy, information technology, education and culture.
