Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk met with Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić during a visit to Belgrade on Thursday.
During talks in the Serbian capital, the pair discussed Serbia’s progress towards membership of the European Union.
“You know that I am more of a sceptic than realist, but they opened up some new perspectives and some new hope that it is possible to expect in the future, I would not say acceleration but some sort of different relationship beside all what is necessary for us to do,” Vučić told reporters after the meeting as he outlined details of the talks.
“Without Serbia the European Union is not complete,” Tusk said, standing alongside Vučić.
“We are aware of ambitions plans Serbia has regarding the growth plan in order to accelerate its European path. For Poland, bilateral relations with Serbia are important, especially the strengthening of economic relations,” Tusk added.
The Polish prime minister also said that after a long and open discussion, he better understands Serbia’s position and expressed confidence that their conversation will lead to greater cooperation between Serbia, the EU, and Poland.
