Serbia National Day – United States Department of State

On behalf of the United States of America, I congratulate the citizens of the Republic of Serbia on your Statehood Day, Sretenje.

This year offers new possibilities to further strengthen the ties of friendship between the American and Serbian people and bring increased security and prosperity to both our nations. We support Serbia as it pursues its path to European integration and long-term security and independence of its energy supplies and resources. Together, we can develop new investment opportunities in the energy and technology sectors and increase the stability of the Western Balkans. We are excited to participate in EXPO 2027 and wish Serbia every success as it hosts nations of the world in two years.

The United States looks forward to building on decades of cooperation as we continue our partnership with Serbia across multiple sectors including trade, defense, and regional peace and security.
