BELGRADE, Serbia -- Defence Minister Zoran Stankovic said on Tuesday (December 26th) that Serbia's recent entry into NATO's Partnership for Peace (PfP) programme was the major political development of 2006. Speaking at a news conference in Belgrade, Stankovic said the PfP admission represented recognition of the defence sector's restructuring and was a crucial boost for continuation of reforms and the Euro-Atlantic integration process. He also predicted that problems involving co-operation with the UN war crimes tribunal would be resolved quickly, including the arrest of fugitive Ratko Mladic. (Blic - 27/12/06; Tanjug - 26/12/06)
