At the meeting, Dacic warned that despite the urgent need for unification and joint engagement, there is still growing distrust and a lack of dialogue among the participating countries.
He pointed out that methods used by terrorists are taking more and more victims, while prevention is becoming increasingly difficult.
The fight against terrorism, as he pointed out, including the decisive and unconditional condemnation of terrorist acts in all forms and ways of manifestation, remains at the top of our agenda.
With the fight against terrorism, extreme violence and radicalisation that leads to it, we all need to work together, opposing racism and xenophobia. The suppression of terrorism and extremism cannot be used as an excuse to spread fear and hatred towards migrants and all minority groups in our societies, Dacic stressed.
He points out that the phenomenon of migration, on the other hand, should be considered as a whole and must remain one of the priorities. We believe that the OSCE should apply a comprehensive approach in seeking a comprehensive response to this extremely serious challenge. Serbia, for its part, continues to provide the migrants with the necessary assistance.
As for cyber security, we remain committed to the ultimate goal – a peaceful and safe cyberspace for everyone, he added.
The First Deputy Prime Minister reiterated commitment to the dialogue with Pristina under the auspices of the EU and the implementation of all previously reached agreements, and in particular the establishment of the Community of Serb Municipalities, for which we have been waiting for a long time.
We believe that an open and honest dialogue is the only way to improve the everyday life of people living in Kosovo-Metohija, he concluded.
