Telephone conversation with the President of the Republic of France

President Macron told President Vučić that Serbia has his full support, as does President Vučić himself. He reiterated that Serbia could count on the unconditional support of France, which also includes strong backing for our country on its European path. 

 

President Vučić thanked President Macron for the support as well as for the concern and personal human and state solidarity that he shows for the citizens of Serbia, despite the difficult situation and a large number of patients in France. He regretted the death toll of more than 4,000 COVID-19 victims in France and hoped that decisive action by President Macron and the French government would succeed in fighting the disease. 

 

The two presidents agreed that we can only fight the pandemic by joining forces and that friends, such as Serbia and France, are supportive of each other in times of challenge.  

 

President Vučić asked President Macron for assistance from France to Serbian citizens in the form of medications and raw materials for the production of drugs used in the treatment of patients with COVID-19. 

 

President Vučić and President Macron expressed their determination to cooperate in eliminating the economic consequences of the pandemic. They will also continue to work on developing strategic relations between Serbia and France for the benefit of the citizens of both countries.
