BELGRADE - Serbian FM Marko Djuric and US Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment Jose W Fernandez will sign an agreement on a Serbia-US strategic partnership in the energy sector in Washington on Wednesday.

The agreement will enable new investments in the energy sector to boost energy security and a sustainable transition to clean energy sources, the Serbian MFA said in a statement.

Earlier, Djuric said economic cooperation with the US had made major progress.

"I am travelling to Washington, where I will be attending a meeting at a conference of the Pupin Initiative, but I will meet with a series of US officials. We expect to conclude an agreement with the US on a strategic partnership in the energy sector very soon. It will be a new, very important step forward in our relations," Djuric said.
