The ruling parties in China and Serbia on Monday pledged to forge ever-closer links, as a Chinese Communist Party delegation in Belgrade met Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Prime Minister Ana Brnabic.

Both sides hailed the strong relations between the two countries but also between the two ruling parties - the Chinese Communist Party and Serbian Progressive Party, SNS.
