On Thursday morning, Jandroković is expected to meet with Vučić and Prime Minister Ana Brnabić, and then in the afternoon he will meet with representatives of the Croatian community in Serbia, the Croatian National Council, in Subotica.

The visit of Serbian President Vučić, who was in Zagreb in February this year at the invitation of President Kolinda Grabar Kitarović, has already resulted in meetings of relevant ministries related to resolving open issues, as well as meetings of working bodies to address missing persons, minority committees, and trade cooperation committees. In this regard, the official visit of the Speaker of the Parliament is a continuation of the political dialogue at the highest level, the statement notes.

The opening of the Croatian Chamber of Economy office in Belgrade will also be an occasion for discussions on strengthening economic cooperation between the two countries. There will also be discussions on European cooperation between the two states within the framework of Serbia’s accession process to the European Union.

An important topic of the official visit, the statement adds, will be the position and rights of the Croatian minority in Serbia, and in this regard, Jandroković will visit Subotica and discuss the position of the Croatian minority with its representatives in Serbia.
