The military medicine and military education are areas in which, in the current conditions, it is possible to develop cooperation with the Iranian side, bearing in mind respecting the limitations and restrictive measures imposed by the UN and the EU on Iran.
At the meeting, they discussed about the current migrant crisis, which showed interconnectivity of spatially very remote regions, since the security challenges are intertwined to such an extent that the safety of the region cannot be seen in isolation from the rest of the world.
Serbia has shown to act as a responsible member of the international community and provide an adequate response to the current crisis by investing extraordinary efforts on the implementation of enhanced border control and prevention of criminal activities of smugglers and traffickers who seek to profit from the misfortune of migrants.
