BELGRADE - Serbia will be the strongest bulwark of international law and its diplomacy will continue to develop in the challenging times ahead, Serbian FM Marko Djuric said at the opening of an ambassadorial conference hosted by the Serbian MFA in Belgrade on Monday.

The conference brought together Serbian ambassadors, consuls and heads of missions to international organisations.

"Our MFA must be the main stakeholder and the main pillar of Serbia's foreign policy response and the main support to all state institutions in the pursuit of the foreign policy in times that demand that we be flexible, adaptable and ready to embrace new technologies and new socio-political circumstances and to give the best possible response to them," Djuric said.

He said the ambassadorial conference was taking place in Belgrade after more than a decade.

"We gathered here to assess Serbia's foreign policy activity together in times that are more turbulent and more challenging than the times faced by perhaps any generation of diplomats in modern Serbian history," Djuric said.

He said he was convinced new horizons of cooperation were ahead of Serbia.

"I am confident that, with the new US administration - with which we maintain exceptional daily communication - we will also succeed in making a new contribution to achieving peace and stability in our region, that we will preserve and strengthen our traditional friendships and that we will also advance our relations with the People's Republic of China, that we will also not lose our relations with Russia or any other country in the world," Djuric said, adding that Serbia would keep adhering to the principles enshrined in the UN Charter.
