Austria supports Serbia along the EU path, notably the opening of new chapters, not only Chapters 23 and 24, but also Chapters 5, 15, 25 and 26 that deal with public procurement, energy, science and research, education and culture, Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic said on Tuesday.
At a joint press conference with Austrian Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz, the prime minister noted that the Action Plan on the cooperation between Serbia and Austria would give an added impetus to the country along the EU path.
The prime minister underscored that Serbia attached a great importance to the economic cooperation, the plan being to increase the volume of trade from EUR 700-800 million to EUR 1 billion this year.
“In Serbia, there are many Austrian investments, and those firms are expected to hire 2,000 new employees this year,” Vucic said.
