General information |
| The Republic of Serbia attaches particular importance to relations with the Diaspora and Serbs of the region, as best reflected in the Declaration of the Government of the Republic of Serbia proclaiming the relations between the home country and the Diaspora the relations of the greatest state and national interest (2006), the Law on the Diaspora and Serbs of the Region (2009) and in the Strategy of preserving and strengthening relations between the mother country and Diaspora and between the mother country and Serbs of the region (2011).
Through the network of its diplomatic and consular missions in foreign countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Serbia is making every effort, by using all available capacities, material and human resources, as well as diplomatic instruments, to meet the needs of its nationals and people of Serbian descent in foreign countries and to help them foster their national identity, language, culture and customs. By rendering an effective and quality consular protection and services, organizing education and information in their mother tongue, assisting them in establishing and managing clubs and associations, and by ensuring them contacts with business and other organizations in the mother country, they are encouraging them to cooperate among themselves, to intensify contacts and relations with the mother country, and to work tirelessly for the promotion of their overall economic, scientific, cultural, information, sports and other ties with the mother country. Our wish is that the Serbian Diaspora worldwide and the Serbs of the region look upon the diplomatic and consular missions of the Republic of Serbia as “their home” that they should turn to for assistance and solution of their problems in a foreign country, to obtain information about the mother country and realize their educational, cultural and other individual and group interests. In addition, the diplomatic and consular missions of the Republic of Serbia are the addresses at which they may find partners for discuss on business cooperation with economic partners in the Republic of Serbia, either in respect of investment, joint ventures, trade, tourism or any other form of mutually beneficial economic cooperation. Information available on the websites of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the diplomatic and consular missions of the Republic of Serbia intended for the Diaspora and Serbs of the region should provide basic information, facilitate mutual contacts and serve as an encouragement for further cooperation.
