Mr. Tomislav Nikolic addressed in his speech that Serbia has a good geographical position and momentum for economic development, and also formed a “steel-like friendship” with China. In recent years, the Serbian government has introduced many preferential policies and incentives to promote trade and investment. Cooperation between China and Serbia in infrastructure, energy, electricity, mining and other fields has been on track, and cooperation in finance and agriculture has begun to bear fruit. Serbia attaches great importance to its strategic partnership with China. Official organizations including the National Council for Coordination of Cooperation with the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China will provide necessary support for Chinese enterprises to invest in Serbia.
Chairman Zhang Yongming addressed that China-Serbia friendship has a long history. Since the two countries have established a comprehensive strategic partnership in 2016, their exchange and cooperation in economy, trade, science and technology, and culture have continuously advanced to a new level. Under the “16+1 Cooperation” mechanism, CCPIT Beijing and the Belgrade Chamber of Commerce jointly sponsored the 2nd Roundtable of Presidents of Chambers of Commerce of Capital Cities and a number of economic and trade promotion sessions last year. These events have laid a solid foundation for China, Serbia and other central and eastern European countries to launch mutually beneficial economic and trade cooperation and form a joint force for trade and investment promotion. CCPIT Beijing, as an international trade and investment promotion agency, will endeavor to serve as a bridge between Chinese and Serbian enterprises, and provide better cooperation platform and trade services.
