When asked to introduce the program of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic’s upcoming visit to China, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Wednesday that this will be President Vucic’s first state visit to China. Under the strategic guidance of leaders of the two countries, China-Serbia relations have been moving forward on a high level in recent years, he added.
The two sides have firmly supported each other’s core interests and major concerns, cemented political mutual trust, achieved fruitful cooperation, maintained close coordination on multilateral affairs, and enjoyed booming people-to-people exchanges, Guo said at a regular press conference.
Earlier the same day prior to Guo’s remarks, a spokesperson from China’s Foreign Ministry announced that Vucic will pay a state visit to China from May 24 to 28.
A Chinese expert said that relations between China and Serbia serve as a model in China-Europe relations, setting a sound example for cooperation among Global South countries to achieve mutual benefits and win-win results.
Vucic described on Wednesday that his trip to Beijing will undoubtedly be “the most significant visit in my political career,” according to his official Instagram account.
