Vucic: Important meetings ahead in Brussels, Zurich and Berne

BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Tuesday important meetings in Brussels, Zurich and Berne were ahead of him over the next three days.

Speaking to reporters in Belgrade, Vucic said that, among other officials, he would meet with EU foreign policy and security chief Kaja Kallas and European Council President Antonio Costa in Brussels on Tuesday.

He said he would attend a dinner hosted by Costa and also meet with the EU special envoy for the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue Miroslav Lajcak, EU Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos and "all the new people in charge of enlargement."

He said he would also speak with US officials if meetings could be arranged to take place before his trip to Zurich in the evening.

"I will have a strenuous day in Brussels - a very important day for Serbia - and also in Zurich tomorrow, and meetings with the Swiss president and ministers the day after tomorrow, and then I will be coming back here, we have important events," Vucic said.

He urged everyone to pay attention to his speech in Zurich.

"That speech will be my analysis, my view on the global situation, and it will be much different from anything you can hear in Europe today, and include predictions of what I expect. Of course, within those frameworks you will also be able to see my take on Serbia's position in the future," Vucic said.
