Dacic meets with Sao Tome and Principe PM

BELGRADE - Serbian First Deputy PM and FM Ivica Dacic met with Sao Tome and Principe PM Patrice Emery Trovoada in Belgrade on Wednesday.

Dacic noted that the relations between Serbia and Sao Tome and Principe were traditionally very good and rooted in the period of Sao Tome and Principe's struggle for decolonisation, strongly supported by the former Yugoslavia at the time.

Trovoada thanked Dacic for Serbia's continued assistance to his country, noting that Sao Tome and Principe especially appreciated a Serbian donation in the form of 20 t of seed maize, delivered last month.

The parties agreed to continue regular political dialogue and an exchange of visits as well as to use the trust between their countries as a foundation for strengthening cooperation in all areas of mutual interest, the Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
