On Thursday, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic received a farewell visit from the French Ambassador to Belgrade, Pierre Cochard. Vucic took to Instagram to thank Cochard for his dedicated work during his tenure in Serbia. They discussed all important aspects of the partnership between Serbia and France and expressed confidence that the close ties between the two countries will continue to develop in the coming years. Vucic wished Cochard much success in his future professional challenges. This visit comes at a time when Serbia is ramping up its diplomatic activities with European partners, while other key bilateral meetings are also taking place, such as the one between Milos Vucevic and Hungarian officials, who highlighted brotherly relations and Hungary’s support for Serbia on its European path. Is this just another diplomatic protocol or a real confirmation of deep ties? Either way, Vucic and Cochard showed that Serbia-France relations are far from cold and formal. What do you think — are these diplomatic meetings just a show for the public or a real foundation for future cooperation?
