(Nils Ragnar Kamsvag and Bozidar Djelic)
Deputy Prime Minister for European Integration Bozidar Djelic and Norwegian Ambassador to Serbia Nils Ragnar Kamsvag signed on Tuesday a Memorandum of Understanding between the Serbian government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Norway, it was announced on the website of the Government of Serbia.
Djelic said that that document envisaged Norway´s aid of approximately €7 million and referred to the Programme of assistance as part of bilateral cooperation in 2010.
The approved funds, in the amount of NOK 56,241,622 (approximately €7.14 million), will be available to Serbia this year, he specified and pointed out that €1.9 million would be invested in the improvement of judicial infrastructure, while €1 million was to be spent on cleaning the soil from unexploded bombs.
Djelic said that that programme was only part of the aid that Norway was providing to Serbia and added that the primary goal of Norway was to support reforms aimed at strengthening cooperation with the EU.
As he pointed out, Norway has donated €216 million to Serbia since 2000, which is one of the most significant aids to our country.
- Serbia recognizes efforts that Norway puts into fulfillment of our European aspirations - Djelic said and expressed the hope that the country would keep supporting Serbia on its path to the EU.
Mr. Kamsvag said that the Norwegian assistance to Serbia was primarily directed at enabling Serbia to stay on the path to the EU, adding that long-term support was provided to the systems of justice, defense and security, energy and environment protection, gender equality, and respect for human rights.
The Kingdom of Norway, as one of the most important bilateral donors since 1999, has offered support to Serbia in the European integration process, with a special emphasis on political, economic and social reforms, the rule of law and development of democracy.
