Serbia's newly-appointed ambassador to Baku Nebojsa Rodic has hailed Azerbaijan`s importance as an important energy supplier of Europe.

Rodic emphasized that Azerbaijan is one of the world`s five emerging energy markets.
Appraising Serbian-Azerbaijani economic relations, he said "We have signed a total of 24 bilateral agreements so far. Our countries enjoy growing trade."
The ambassador also hailed military and defense industry cooperation between Serbia and Azerbaijan.
