Serbian-German Association for promotion of relations

BELGRADE - The Serbian-German Association stated on Wednesday on the occasion of Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic's visit to Germany that this organization will work towards fostering and developing the friendship between the Serbian and German peoples.

The Association will focus on promotion of the civil society, particularly advancing economic, scientific-technical, cultural-educational and sports cooperation, as well as cooperation between independent media.

One of the areas that the Association will work on is the reform of the Serbian health care system, particularly health insurance relying on Germany's positive experience.

The organization will particularly deal with and actively participate in the reform of systemic laws which refer to protection of human rights and freedom of the media, and other laws which should be amended in line with the EU standards, reads a statement signed by Association President Viseslav Hadzi-Tanovic.

Special activity will be directed at creation of political and legislative environment for free movement of capital and stimulation of development and cooperation between Serbian and German businessmen, mainly referring to small and medium-sized business.

The traditionally good relations between German and Serbian scientists and businessmen, and exceptional cooperation in sports and cultural spheres are a solid basis for promotion of the Serbian-German ties at the NGO level, the statement reads.

The Association is open for all initiatives and it will support all projects which would further develop good cooperation between the Serbian and German peoples, the release says.
