Prime Minister Ana Brnabic said today in a conversation with Ambassador of the State of Qatar to Serbia Faris Roumi Al-Naimi that the two countries have started a new stage in cooperation that opened space for further development of bilateral and economic relations.
The Ambassador of Qatar conveyed greetings to the Prime Minister and handed over a letter from the President of the Council of Ministers and the Minister of the Interior, Sheikh Khalid bin Khalifa bin Abdul Aziz Al Thani.
The Prime Minister thanked for the support and assistance in medical equipment that this country sent to Serbia during the epidemiological crisis, especially considering the fact that the aid arrived at a time when Qatar was facing great challenges caused by the pandemic.
The Ambassador of Qatar assessed that there is a mutual interest in intensifying cooperation at the international level and support on important issues for both countries.
Given that Qatar is predominantly an importing country, the Ambassador pointed out his interest in importing agricultural products and increasing trade.
Brnabic stated that there is interest in Qatari investments in Serbia in the fields of construction, infrastructure, information technology and agriculture.
Also, as the Prime Minister pointed out, Serbia is committed to development in the fields of artificial intelligence, biotechnology, biomedicine and digitalisation, which include numerous opportunities for joint projects.
