Delegations agreed to increase trade among each other to $2 billion from current $260 million. Serbia invited Hungary to invest in Serbia.
Hungarian Minister of Economy Gyorgy Matolcsy expressed expectation that the Hungarian government will initiate EUR 100 million worth of loans with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which will be aimed at implementing joint projects with Serbia.
The loans would be used in the domains of agriculture and transport, and especially in the construction of the Istanbul-Belgrade-Vienna-Budapest railroad along which trains would travel at 200 kilometers per hour.
Serbia said that it was particularly important that Hungary would chair the EU the following year, when the Union should adopt the Danube strategy which is complementary to the two countries’ common objectives.
