US Ambassador in Belgrade Mary Warlick said US-Serbia relations were very positive and that the USA strongly supports Serbia’s EU integrations, while Serbia could play an important role in the region.

She told Belgrade daily BLIC her task is to follow the new tone instilled in mutual relations by US Vice-President Joseph Beiden, during his visit to Belgrade last year and to develop a new chapter in those relations.

Despite differences in the opinion on some issues, such as the Kosovo one, the USA wants to build strong relations with Serbia.

The annual US aid programme of 50 million USD is aimed at supporting reforms to promote Serbia’s integrations in the EU and in global institutions, she said.

The USA is finding ways to enhance the business dimension of mutual relations as much as possible, she said.
