This afternoon, Montenegrin President Jakov Milatović arrived in Belgrade. It is his first official visit to Serbia since he was elected head of state in April, and he was welcomed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ivica Dačić.
Dacic mentioned on his Instagram profile that Milatović will be on a two-day visit to Serbia.
"I am looking forward to this meeting, which will further strengthen the traditionally friendly relations and cooperation between our countries," said Dacic.
On Monday, Jakov Milatović will meet with the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, and the Speaker of the Parliament, Vladimir Orlić, and during his visit to Belgrade, he will lay a wreath at the Monument to the Unknown Hero in Avala and flowers in front of the "Vladislav Ribnikar" Elementary School.
On the occasion of the visit, the Embassy of Montenegro will host a reception at the Montenegrin House in Belgrade, Milatović's office announced.
Milatović told TV Montenegro on Saturday that the focus of his visit to Belgrade will be the complete normalization of relations with Serbia as an important economic partner.
According to him, the most important segment of the visit will be the exchange of ambassadors again, since neither Serbia has an ambassador in Podgorica, nor Montenegro has an ambassador in Belgrade.
Milatović said that he would invite President Vučić to come to Montenegro and expressed his belief that he would accept it.
