Preserving peace, stability in region in interest of Serbia, NATO

Belgrade, 28 October 2022

First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic met today with the Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, Admiral Rob Bauer, who is on an official visit to our country.

During the meeting, the two sides exchanged opinions on the current state and perspective of partnership cooperation between the Republic of Serbia and NATO, the security situation in Kosovo and Metohija and the activities of the NATO-led KFOR mission, as well as current issues of regional, European and global security.

The importance of regularly holding a dialogue between representatives of Serbia and the officials of the political and military structures of NATO was pointed out, which contributes to better mutual understanding, especially when it comes to the most important issues of interest to Serbia, but also to stability in the region.

It was especially emphasised that Serbia supports and appreciates the engagement of the International Security Forces (KFOR) in the southern province in the strict, complete and impartial implementation of the mandate established and assigned to KFOR based on UN Security Council Resolution 1244.

Admiral Bauer assessed that the exchange of best practices and knowledge in areas such as energy and environmental security, cyber defence and resilience, protection of critical infrastructure and the fight against terrorism, can only improve cooperation between NATO and Serbia.

Both sides agreed that Serbia and NATO share a common interest in preserving peace and stability in the region, according to a statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
