Partnership cooperation of Serbia with OSCE

Belgrade, 26 October 2021

Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikola Selakovic stated today, at an annual meeting of heads of OSCE missions in the region of Southeast Europe, that Serbia attaches great importance to the OSCE field presence, given that we have been hosts of two field missions in Belgrade and Pristina for two decades already.

Selakovic underlined that we are especially proud of the fact that cooperation with the OSCE Mission in Serbia has been based on partnership relations since its establishment and that the activities of this mission and our institutions have served in this Organisation as an example of successful relations between the host country and the field mission.

Serbia also supports the work of the OSCE Mission in Kosovo and Metohija, as a visible international status-neutral presence in the province, which operates in line with the mandate based on UN Security Council Resolution 1244, he said.

The Minister pointed out that Serbia is dedicated to the improvement of regional cooperation, that it actively contributes to solving open issues and strives to place emphasis on economic cooperation through the Open Balkan initiative.

Speaking about the importance of the OSCE in the whole of Southeast Europe, Selakovic highlighted the Organisation’s role in supporting the promotion of respect for human rights, the rule of law, and the strengthening of trust in the reconciliation process in the region.
