Serbian Armed Forces Chief of General Staff, Lieutenant General Miloje Miletic is in his first official visit to the Republic of Macedonia, during which he will continue the talks on further improving the bilateral military relations he had during the official visit of the Macedonian Armed Forces Chief of General Staff Lieutenant General Miroslav Stojanovski to Serbia in 2008.

In Skopje, Generals Miletic and Stojanovski exchanged views on the issues and possibilities of further military cooperation, especially in the area of joint training at the training grounds for the armed forces of Macedonia and the Serbian Armed Forces.

Serbian Armed Forces Chief of General Staff, Lieutenant General Miloje Miletic spoke with the Minister of Defence of the Republic of Macedonia Zoran Konjanovski.

During the past period, Serbia and Macedonia have carried out many activities in the fields of military-medical, military-technical and military-educational cooperation, and the emphasis was on cooperation in the development of the NCO corps.

The agreement that the defence ministers of Serbia and Macedonia signed last year in Skopje, which was ratified and came into force in June this year, gives the formal legal basis for the further promotion of cooperation in the field of defence.
