Dacic attended the Helicopter Unit Day at Nikola Tesla Airport, after which he said that unit’s members, with modern regulations and procedures, fully contribute to the goal of achieving the security of the state and the Western Balkans.
He said that the Ministry wants to create strong, modern, professional, technically equipped and trained police personnel ready to protect every citizen from any form of threat.
The police can only contribute to Serbia's road towards the European Union, taking into account a number of reform processes that are carried out within the Ministry and the police, he said.
