Minister of Finance Diana Dragutinovic and Danish Ambassador to Serbia Mette Kjuel Nielsen signed an Agreement on Development Cooperation between their two governments on July 23.

As part of the programme envisaged by the Agreement, Denmark will donate €5 million for agricultural development in Southern Serbia, i.e. for the Jablanica, Nisava, Pcinj and Toplica districts.

The Danish government is under an obligation to secure financial assistance to the Serbian government, as well as material resources and technical assistance in the form of training staff. It will also make scholarships available to students who want to study in Denmark or other countries.
