SERBIAN President Aleksandar Vucic on Friday inspected the construction site of the Serbia Exhibition Centre, a venue for Expo 2027 Belgrade being built by a Chinese company.

Vucic was accompanied by First Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Sinisa Mali and Chinese Ambassador to Serbia Li Ming. During the visit, Vucic also had breakfast with Chinese and Serbian construction workers.

Vucic said the project had entered its final construction and interior finishing phase, but the construction schedule remained tight and work needed to be accelerated to ensure timely completion.

In response to a question from a Xinhua reporter during the tour, Vucic said Serbia’s friendship with China and bilateral cooperation would remain stable and continue over the long term. “We have truly built an unbreakable China-Serbia friendship,” Vucic said. — Xinhua
