Director of the Office for Media Relations Milivoje Mihajlovic said that the Serbian government at its session yesterday adopted the Bill ratifying the Agreement with the government of Montenegro on police cooperation.

Mihajlovic told a press conference held after the government session that the bill should contribute to a better cooperation between police of the two countries and also reduce crime which fluctuates between the two countries.

The cabinet also adopted the Bill ratifying the Agreement between the governments of Serbia and the Russian Federation on international road traffic and the Bill ratifying the Agreement with the government of Azerbaijan on cooperation and mutual assistance in customs matters, as well as in emergencies, he added.

Mihajlovic said that the Serbian government adopted the Bill ratifying the Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness.

The Serbian government adopted a Decree on subsidised sale of tractors in Republika Srpska in 2011, for which RSD 50 million will be allocated, he said and expressed expectation that this regulation will contribute to better economic cooperation between Serbia and Republika Srpska and will also support the production of tractors in Serbia.

Mihajlovic said that the Serbian government decided to recognise the Republic of South Sudan as an independent and sovereign state.

The Serbian government at its session today decided to establish diplomatic relations with Eritrea, Mihajlovic said.
