Vucevic welcomes Gabonese PM in Belgrade

BELGRADE - Serbian PM Milos Vucevic welcomed Gabonese counterpart Raymond Ndong Sima outside the Palace of Serbia in Belgrade on Monday.

The welcoming ceremony was followed by a tete-a-tete meeting between Vucevic and Ndong Sima and a plenary meeting of Serbian and Gabonese delegations.

The two sides are due to sign a MoU in sports and an agreement on defence cooperation, with Vucevic and Ndong Sima to speak to reporters afterwards.

Ndong Sima arrived in Belgrade in the morning and was greeted at the Nikola Tesla Airport by Serbian Minister Nikola Selakovic.

Serbia maintains traditionally close ties with Gabon, one of the countries that have derecognised the so-called Kosovo.
