Belgrade,
24 July 2008
State Secretary of the Serbian Ministry of Defence said that the government decided at its session today to accept the basis for conducting negotiations and concluding a security agreement on the exchange of information between the Serbian government and NATO.
Spasojevic told the Tanjug news agency that with this agreement, Serbia’s national security level will be significantly improved, and this will be one of the most important steps Serbia has taken towards bringing its membership in the Partnership for Peace (PfP) into full effect.
The security agreement will be signed by Minister of Defence Dragan Sutanovac. The delegation that will negotiate this agreement will be led by Spasojevic, and its members will be representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Security and Intelligence Agency and the Ministry of Interior.
The signing of the security agreement is a precondition for Serbia’s full membership in PfP, the state secretary said and recalled that the government adopted a Presentation document a year ago which brought Serbia’s cooperation with PfP members into full effect.
Serbia wants to be fully integrated in PfP activities and to strengthen its Euroatlantic perspective.
He also noted that this agreement will enable training of members of the army, police and security services at NATO’s educational institutions.
This agreement was signed by over 90 countries and international organisations so far, including the UN, EU, Russia, and OSCE, said Spasojevic.
