Davenport: Serbia-NATO partnership the right approach

BELGRADE - It is for Serbia to determine its policy towards NATO, and the partnership approach is the right one, the Head of the EU Delegation to Serbia, Michael Davenport, said Monday.

Serbia has made the strategic choice about heading towards the EU, as reaffirmed multiple times, but we have also seen an evolution of Serbia's approach towards partnership with NATO, said Davenport.

The conclusion of the Individual Partnership Action Plan (IPAP) has been a big step on that path, he added, addressing the panel NATO-EU Relationship after the Warsaw Summit, held as part of the Belgrade NATO Week.

"It for Serbia to determine its policy towards NATO, but I think that the partnership approach is right and is one that enjoys strong support not just from NATO, but also from individual member states", said Davenport.
