Albanian Minister of Foreign Affairs Ilir Meta launched on Thursday a two-day official visit to Serbia, where is expected to hold talks with Serbian President Boris Tadic and Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremic.
“The official visit to Belgrade is a clear sign of the priority that Albanian foreign policy gives to the development and to the strengthening of relations with the countries of the region as part of the acceleration of the European perspective,” the Albanian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.
Albania-Serbia relations have enjoyed a honeymoon of sorts in recent months, despite their completely opposing views on Kosovo’s unilateral declaration of independence
During his stay in Belgrade Meta will also hold meetings with Serbian Deputy Prime Minister for European Integration Bozidar Djelic, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Internal Affairs Ivica Dacic, as well as with representatives of the Albanian community in South Serbia.
