Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic informed Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen on Wednesday night that Belgrade would send a new ambassador to Tel Aviv within the next month.
The move ends a three-year standoff between the two countries, after Serbia downgraded its ties with Israel over its recognition of Kosovo, which Belgrade does not consider as a separate country, the Hebrew newspaper Israel Hayom reorted.
Kosovo opened an embassy in Jerusalem as part of a deal brokered by then-U.S. President Donald Trump in 2021.
Cohen praided the Serbian president's decision to restore the "important relations" between the two countries.
