During the new cycle of education, the representatives (OPCW) will improve practical skills in early diagnosis, first aid and prehospital care of the acutely intoxicated, injured and sick, in order to be ready for the challenges during the missions in carrying out inspections of chemical weapons worldwide.
The realization of these aspects of education shows the continuity of successful cooperation between the Republic of Serbia and the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in the field of implementation of the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction, and represents another in a series of activities in this area that contribute to the promotion of the Ministry of Defence and the Serbian Armed Forces at the international level.
