US president could visit Serbia soon - FM

"The organization of this kind of visit is a serious business that takes place for a few months. Taking into account all that, Trump could come to Serbia either in the spring ir the end of the year," Dacic told Srpski Telegraf.

According to him, this visit would be of great importance to Belgrade.

"Serbia is leading a serious battle for Kosmet (Kosovo and Metohija), a meeting with Trump would be of tremendous importance to us, because we want Washington to hear out and take into account our positions. The issue of the southern Serbian province is a central topic that would be discussed during this visit, but it is certainly not the only one," says Dacic.

According to him, the arrival of the US president would have an economic aspect, which would mean more US investments.

Referring to information from sources close to the US administration, Telegraf writes that preparations for the visit are "well under way."

The daily's source said that "US administration is seriously engaged in preparations for this visit and that research is already underway on whether or not the arrival of President Trump would raise the rating of America in Serbia."
