The Chief of General Staff, General Ljubiša Diković, addressed today Defence Attachés of the Republic of Serbia gathered at the seventh Conference of Defence Attachés and spoke on that occasion about the most significant activities of the Serbian Armed Forces in 2016 and about the plans for the period to come.
Today’s gathering was also attended by Deputy Director of the Military Intelligence Agency, Colonel Zoran Stojković and the Head of Operations Department of the Serbian Armed Forces General Staff, Brigadier General Duško Žarković.According to General Diković, the goal of the Conference was, among other, to analyse the work of the Defence Attachés of the Republic of Serbia, assign the guidelines and tasks for the period ahead of us, all being aimed at strengthening capabilities of our system and strengthening the position of Serbia in international relations of today’s world.
- It is a great honour to be given an opportunity to talk to top-level officers, carefully selected, educated and prepared for the duties that they discharge, about the system, development of relations of international military cooperation – stressed the Chief of the General Staff adding that the officers who represent Serbia and its defence system all over the world enjoy great respect of the members of our Armed Forces.
Today, our Armed Forces, reminded General Diković, is an institution that enjoys great confidence of the citizens, and that high level of confidence has been a stable trend for several years now.- It is certain that we here, and many before us, take equal credit for such a relation of the citizens towards our institution. It has been carefully built for decades, but something that was built can easily be torn down. The same applies to diplomacy, especially modern diplomacy which is fundamentally different in relation to diplomacy fifty or more years ago. Such level of confidence requires a huge number of obligations and even greater effort of all the members of the Armed Forces to maintain such state - said the Chief of General Staff, General Ljubiša Diković.
During today’s address, General Diković, also looked back on the state of affairs in the Serbian Armed Forces with the perspectives for development, international military cooperation and peacekeeping operations to which the members of the Serbian Armed Forces are deployed.
