BELGRADE - Serbia and Suriname are working together on improving their bilateral cooperation, the Serbian government said in a statement after PM Ana Brnabic received Surinamese FM Albert Ramdin on Monday.
In a friendly and cordial conversation, Brnabic noted that Serbia and Suriname were connected by close diplomatic and political ties, the government said in a statement.
Work is underway on strengthening regulations on agreements to enable better cooperation in areas including the economy, trade, science, health care and agriculture, it also said.
"Serbia extremely appreciates and respects the fact Suriname was the first country to suspend its recognition of the unilaterally declared independence of Kosovo, which set an important standard that was later applied by many other countries," Brnabic noted.
Brnabic especially thanked Ramdin for his government's support for Serbia's successful bid to host EXPO 2027 and added that she hoped Suriname would make a notable appearance at the event.
Ramdin noted that there were major opportunities for cooperation in introduction of new technologies and creating a system of sustainable agriculture, in which he said Serbia had achieved enviable success and had valuable experience.
