Serbian President Boris Tadic has hailed what he called a historic visit by his Croatian counterpart, Ivo Josipovic, to Belgrade.
After their talks, Mr Tadic said Serbia wished for the best possible relations with its neighbour and former enemy.
Mr Josipovic said both countries shared the goal of peace and stability and were finding ways to address the past.
Relations between the ex-Yugoslav states have been tense since the wars of the 1990s.
Both leaders stressed the co-operation and dialogue that they believe now defines their countries' relationship, pledging to find solutions to outstanding issues such as the return of refugees.
