serbioSerbian President Tomislav Nikolić arrived in Havana yesterday, May 18, for a two-day official visit, and was received by Rogelio Sierra, deputy minister of Foreign Affairs.

Speaking to the press at José Martí International Airport, Nikolić reaffirmed the excellent relations between his country and Cuba.

Nikolić thanked Cuba for its longstanding support to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of his nation.

The two countries’ diplomatic relations have never been interrupted since they were first established on August 30, 1943.
