VS chief meets with Montenegrin counterpart

There are no open issues between the Serbian and Montenegrin armies, while military cooperation in the region is better than political, say the armies' chiefs. Serbian Army (VS) Chief-of-Staff General Miloje Miletic and his Montenegrin counterpart Vice-Admiral Dragan Samardzic said that there were a number of spheres where bilateral military cooperation could be enhanced, primarily in terms of exchange of experiences in training and education. VS chief meets with Montenegrin counterpart Miletic stressed that he had received Samardzic’s support to turn the Atomic-Biological-Chemical Defense Center in Krusevac into a regional training center, adding that Serbia was keen to send Serbian troops to Podgorica, where there are plans to establish a regional helicopter pilot training center. Samardzic, who is on his first official visit to the VS, voiced his satisfaction that bilateral cooperation plan between the two armies was becoming more substantive with every passing year. “We’re very eager for our personnel to receive training in Serbia and for the members of our Atomic-Biological-Chemical Defense to go to the center in Krusevac, and we have given our full backing to Serbia to be a regional training center,“ he told a press conference at VS HQ.
