The Iranian daily newspaper Siyasat Ruz published an interview with Ambassador Todorovic in the Persian language. The talks focused on bilateral relations between Serbia and Iran, primarily in the field of economy, trade, other types of cooperation, ways of engagement and work in the conditions of the coronavirus pandemic, private life of Ambassador and the other issues of common interest. Ambassador said that the political relations between the two countries are good, but that we are not satisfied with the level of trade exchange and general economic cooperation, which should be at a much higher level. He pointed out that there are certain problems that should be solved, such as the issue of the payment ways. These and similar issues should be on the agenda at the next session of the Joint Committee for Economic Cooperation. Ambassador said that Serbia pursues an independent policy, but that it also has good relations with the United States, Israel, Russia, China, neighboring countries, the EU, countries in the Middle East, as well as with Iran. When asked about the talks in Washington, Ambassador pointed out that the President of Serbia, Mr. Aleksandar Vučić, signed an important agreement with the representative of Priština on the normalization of economic relations, and that no agreement was signed with Israel, with which we have good relations. When asked about his visit to Iran, Ambassador answered that the two presidents talked about it on the phone a few months ago, but that it is not realistic to expect any high-level visit in the current conditions of a pronounced spread of coronavirus in Iran. The Embassy has a program of what should be done at the level of bilateral relations when health conditions allow it.
