The purpose of the census, which will envelop Serbian nationals abroad and citizens with Serbian nationality and foreign citizenship, is to specify the actual number of Serbs living abroad, because the results of the 2002 census, according to which there are 414,000 Serbian immigrants in the world, is not in line with the actual situation.
On behalf of the committee for the census of the diaspora, Aleksandar Cotric, Miodrag Jaksic and Marko Lopusina attended the meeting, and Assistant Director Miroljub Kostic represented the Statistics Office.
