The Minister of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure, Aleksandra Sofronijević, visited the Port Governance Agency, where she met with Director Vuk Perović and his team to discuss the implementation of key development projects in the port sector. The meeting was also attended by Assistant Minister Aleksandar Banjac and the Head of the Minister’s Cabinet, Danica Uskoković.

During the meeting, the Agency presented its recent achievements and ongoing development projects, including the Sail through Serbia initiative, the Green Ports project, the bulk cargo terminal in Belgrade, and the expansion of the international passenger terminal in Belgrade.

Minister Sofronijević emphasized that river transport is one of the most efficient and environmentally friendly modes of transport, and that the Ministry will continue to strengthen this branch of the transport system.
