Kvirikashvili also thanked Gojkovic for her government’s political decision made in December 2016 over removing the visa regime for Georgian citizens holding ordinary passports.
Our countries have much in common and the existing positive relations are no surprise. Our relationship is becoming stronger and stronger,” Kvirikashvili told Gojkovic and thanked her country for supporting Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
We are waiting for the Serbian business delegation to participate in the business forum this year. For now we have no intense bilateral trade relations and the forum will be a good opportunity for enhancing trade and the investment relationship,” Kvirikashvili stated.
