Chinese presence in Serbia is becoming increasingly evident in public opinion eyes. Hundreds of Serbs and Chinese gathered together at the Belgrade University campus to participate in lunar New Year celebrations.
The language barrier did not prevent the audience from showing maximum interest in the show.
The show was but a fraction of the “puzle” large-scale Serbian-Chinese relations, significantly strengthened recently.
The two countries gave an inherent boost to their co-operation last year, which was clearly seen with the rise in the number of Chinese companies and workers in Serbia.
The hotline “Hainan Airlines” launched direct Belgrade-Pekin flights, and September 2017 began building the first Chinese cultural centre in the Balkans.
The facility, estimated to cost $53m, will be set up at the site of the China Embassy in Belgrade, destroyed May 1999 during NATO bombings.
southwest of the Serbian capital, meanwhile, Chinese and working engineers of the group “Shandong Hi-Speed” are exploiting favourable weather conditions to meet the deadline for completion of the new highway in the Ubit area.
