According to him, the Ministry of Defence is actively working towards Serbia’s primary foreign policy goal – European Union membership and strategic commitment to military neutrality does not pose an obstacle to establishing good neighbourly relations with all interested parties.
Minister Puttrich agreed that the EU integration of the Western Balkans was important for establishing lasting peace and stability in that part of Europe.
