This move underscores Serbia’s commitment to enhancing communication channels and fostering a stronger relationship with Egypt.
Speaking at the Serbian-Egyptian Business Forum, which Extra News broadcasted, Vučić highlighted Serbia’s economic growth prospects, stating, “We anticipate more than 4% economic growth, as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) continuously updates its assessments. We hope to create a conducive business environment that will lead to more fruitful outcomes in the future.”
Vučić acknowledged the challenges of attracting direct investment amid the current global conditions, yet he encouraged Egyptian companies to participate in the Serbian-Egyptian Business Forum.
