Why is Serbia friendly to China?

Because China has helped Serbia a lot in economic, military and diplomatic fields.

Within the framework of cooperation between China and Central and Eastern European countries, the cooperation between Serbia and China is among the best in Balkan countries, no matter the number or amount of projects.

In the field of infrastructure-several sections of Hungarian Railway and European Corridor Expressway 1 1, in the field of energy-the reconstruction and expansion of Kostolac thermal power station and Boer copper mine project are all well-known large projects.

But our cooperation goes far beyond this. China has a steel plant invested by China Hegang in Smederevo, and an auto parts factory run by Meida Company in Watts, Breno.

There are also new projects that we are waiting for, such as China's largest green investment project in Serbia, Zrenjanin Linglong Tire Factory, and the construction of heating pipeline connecting Belgrade and Breno Watts. Generally speaking, those China companies that have invested and set up factories in Serbia have made great contributions to improving the economic situation in Serbia.

At the same time, the Serbian side has the same goodwill towards China newspapers. Economically, Serbia returned China's gifts, including tens of billions of dollars in orders for large shield machines, high-speed railways and other key equipment and infrastructure projects. At the same time, Serbia is also the first European country to grant visa-free access to China, making Serbia a popular destination for China nationals to travel in Europe.

Social customs and habits

Serbs are warm and generous, like to make friends and dress neatly and appropriately in social occasions. When meeting guests in social occasions, you should shake hands with the introduced guests and give your name. When meeting relatives and friends, it is customary to hug and kiss each other on the cheek. The eating habits of Serbs are mainly western food with Serbian national characteristics, and they also like Chinese food very much.

Serbs like to invite familiar guests or friends to the suburbs or tourist attractions for sightseeing and leisure activities to promote exchanges and mutual affection. In the meantime, a banquet must be held. Whether at a formal or informal banquet, the host should warmly invite guests to taste the local rich fruit wine and propose a toast to each other.
