Expert from Serbia lauds benefits of cooperation

A Serbian expert on international relations said that China's global cooperation project has emerged as a major factor in the infrastructural and economic development of Serbia and other Central and Eastern European countries, fostering regional partnerships and mutual benefits.

China and Serbia signed more deals during the Second Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, and both have vowed to bring cooperation to a new level.

Ivona Ladjevac, head of the center for the Belt and Road at the Institute of International Politics and Economics in Belgrade, Serbia's capital, believes cooperation will be boosted. "The two countries' joint efforts in the Belt and Road Initiative will lead to broader prospects and strong support for bilateral cooperation," she said.
