Jović Held a Meeting with the Minister of Energy and Mines in the Government of Ontario

In the conversation, Jović assessed that the visit of Serbia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Marko Đurić to Ottawa earlier this week opened the door for more intensive advancement of cooperation between Serbia and Canada, both politically and economically.

The interlocutors exchanged views on issues related to energy and natural resources, as well as on ways to establish cooperation in these areas between the Republic of Serbia and Ontario.

State Secretary Jović informed his counterpart about Serbia’s economic and development potential, emphasizing that he sees significant room for better and mutually beneficial cooperation between Serbia and Canada in numerous fields.

As he added, the restoration of the direct Belgrade–Toronto flight also brings great opportunities for more efficient connections between people and businesses, while the large Serbian community in the province of Ontario can serve as a valuable bridge for cooperation.

The meeting was attended by the Ambassador of the Republic of Serbia to Canada Stefan Tomašević, the Consul General of the Republic of Serbia in Toronto Dejan Eraković, as well as Member of Provincial Parliament and Parliamentary Assistant to the Premier of Ontario Will Bouma.

State Secretary Jović also visited today the Serbian Orthodox elementary school “Saint Sava” as well as the Cathedral of the Assembly of Serbian Saints in Mississauga.
