Serbian Minister of Interior Dragan Jocic has held three separate meetings today with Special Coordinator of Southeast Europe Stability Pact Erhard Busek, Head of the OSCE Mission to Serbia-Montenegro Maurizio Massari, and Deputy High Representative in Bosnia-Herzegovina Bernard Fassier.
Jocic and Busek discussed the Stability Pact’s initiative to resolve the issue of visas and further cooperation in fighting organised crime.
At the meeting with Bernard Fassier, a member of Republika Srpska’s committee on Srebrenica, Jocic said the Serbian Ministry of Interior (MUP) is ready to provide assistance in shedding light on what happened in Srebrenica. He stressed that the MUP has already given data on 800 Bosniaks from Srebrenica who left Bosnia-Herzegovina during the war.
Jocic and Massari discussed the MUP and OSCE’s joint activities in Vojvodina, in relation to the latest developments in Serbia’s northern province, as well as the good cooperation that exists in establishing trust between different ethnic groups. The talks also covered the OSCE Mission’s activities in southern Serbia and the implementation of a project of police training in local communities.
They also agreed on the signing of a memorandum on cooperation between the MUP and OSCE as well as to draft and harmonise regulations related to interior affairs including a new law on police.
