State Secretary Isidora Burić and Assistant Minister Dušan Radonjić from the Ministry of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure attended a Steering Committee meeting in Paris for the “Veliko selo” wastewater treatment plant project.
This committee was established following an agreement signed between Serbia and the French company Suez during French President Emmanuel Macron’s recent visit to Serbia. Its primary role is to prepare the necessary project documentation for signing a commercial contract between the French and Serbian sides, as reported by the ministry.
During the meeting, it was confirmed that the new facility will utilize the latest wastewater treatment technology, meeting the highest European and global standards.
Prior to the meeting, the Serbian delegation toured the Suez-managed wastewater treatment plant in the Asher neighborhood of northern Paris. This plant has the capacity to serve five million residents, making it the largest in Europe and the second largest globally.
Also present at the meeting were Miroslav Čučković, manager of the City of Belgrade, Radomir Vujadin, general director of JKP Belgrade water supply and sewerage, and Vladimir Milojević, executive director for development, design and investments.
Additionally, Suez and Vinci Construction Grands Projets signed a memorandum of understanding with Serbia for the construction and management of the first wastewater treatment plant in Belgrade.
