The United States is expected to formally confirm its participation in Expo 2027 in Belgrade during the visit of senior US official Sarah Rogers to the Serbian capital. According to the reports, Rogers, who serves as Under Secretary of State for Management, is arriving in Belgrade to sign an agreement formalizing US participation in the specialized international exhibition scheduled to take place in Serbia in 2027.
The signing of the agreement is being presented as an important diplomatic and economic signal for the Expo project and for Serbia’s international positioning ahead of the event. The reports emphasize that the participation of the United States, one of the world’s leading economic and political powers, is expected to strengthen the global visibility and credibility of Expo 2027.
Expo 2027 in Belgrade is planned under the theme “Play for Humanity: Sport and Music for All.” Serbia previously won the hosting rights after a vote within the Bureau International des Expositions, becoming the first country in the Western Balkans to organize such an exhibition. The event is expected to gather participating countries, international organizations and millions of visitors.
According to the reports, Rogers’ visit includes meetings with Serbian officials connected to the Expo project and broader bilateral cooperation. The formalization of US participation is described as one of the most significant international confirmations received so far by the organizers of Expo 2027.
The reports also outline Rogers’ professional background. Before assuming her current role in the US State Department, she held senior management and financial positions in both the public and private sectors. Her visit is therefore framed not only as a diplomatic gesture, but also as part of the organizational and logistical preparations connected to the participation of the United States in the Belgrade exhibition.
The coverage presents the agreement as an important step in the broader process of attracting international participants to Expo 2027. Serbia has repeatedly emphasized that the exhibition is intended to become a major regional and international platform for economic cooperation, tourism, innovation and global visibility.
Overall, the arrival of the US under secretary and the expected signing of the participation agreement are being interpreted as a major diplomatic boost for Belgrade’s Expo project, confirming the involvement of another major international actor in the event planned for 2027.
