China’s President Xi Jinping will pay a two-day visit to Serbia next week, official Belgrade and Beijing have announced.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic’s office has stated that Vucic will host Xi on May 7 and 8, while China’s Foreign Ministry has said that Xi will spend the period from May 5 to 10 touring France, Serbia and Hungary.

The Chinese president will travel to France at the invitation of his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron. The invitations to visit the other two countries were extended by President Vucic and Hungary’s president and prime minister, Tamas Sulyok and Victor Orban, respectively.

The agenda of each visit has yet to be published.

During President Xi Jinping's visit, Serbia will initiate projects of accelerated technological development in areas where it does not have sufficient knowledge, President Aleksandar Vucic said on April 29. 

In an address to the public, he said the projects were those of "accelerated technological development" in areas "from robotics, satellite technology, flying automobiles and many other things," and that this was a way for Serbia to keep up with the world. Vucic said high-speed trains from China had arrived in Serbia and would be presented to the public in the following days.
