15 February 2010
Minister of Justice Snezana Malovic and war crimes prosecutor Vladimir Vukcevic are on a three-day visit to Canada, where on 18 February they will attend the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding concerning war crimes proceedings.
The Ministry of Justice says in a statement that Malovic said that the signing of the Memorandum is of historic importance since this will be the first such agreement regulating the cooperation between Serbia in Canada in this remit.
The signing of the document will demonstrate the high level of understanding the two countries have achieved, Malovic said.
She noted that through the CIDA project, Canada is among the countries that have backed Serbia’s judicial reform for years.
The Memorandum of Understanding and Improvement of Voluntary Mutual Assistance in Investigative Cases and Proceedings on War Crimes, Crimes against Humanity and Genocide is the first bilateral agreement in this remit that Serbia will have signed with another country.
Its guarantors will be Serbian Minister of Justice Snezana Malovic and Canadian Minister of Justice Robert Nicholson, Director and General Advisor of the War Crimes Section at the Canadian Justice Department Terry Bitner and Serbian war crimes prosecutor Vladimir Vukcevic.
On 17 February Malovic will talk with Canadian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Allen Keseol about the possibilities of signing the Agreement on Judicial Cooperation in Criminal and Civic Matters.
Malovic and Keseol will also discuss the finalisation of talks and the signing of the Social Insurance Agreement, which Canada already signed with Bosnia-Herzegovina.
They will look at the points regarding the finalisation of talks and the signing of the Agreement on Air Traffic and the Convention on Avoiding Double Taxation, as well as begin talks on the Agreement on Facilitated Movement of Young People.
Malovic will also visit the Canadian Supreme Court and Canadian Parliament, the statement adds.
