At the Second General Assembly of SEPCA within the framework of the Serbian presidency, Dačić particularly highlighted cooperation with INTERPOL and the EU4FAST project in fulfilling priorities in the field of preventing human trafficking and migrant smuggling.
Speaking about the second priority of the Serbian chairmanship of SEPCA, the Deputy Prime Minister emphasised that capacities in the fight against high-tech crime have been further strengthened, especially the capacities of the newly established SEPCA Network of Contact Points for High-Tech Crime.
Dačić underlined that the priority of the Serbian police within the SEPCA chairmanship was to draft a revision of the SEPCA Threat Assessment document, which was prepared in cooperation with the Criminal Intelligence Service of Austria and the EU4FAST project and which, as he announced, will be adopted today.
According to him, the formation of an INTERPOL regional bureau in Belgrade would be a historic step for everyone in the region, uniting efforts for an even more successful fight against organised crime.
INTERPOL President Ahmed Naser Al-Raisi emphasised that SEPCA, from the moment of its formation, has been a key platform for debate and coordination of cooperation between regional police forces.
Al-Raisi said that for two decades, Serbia has been a key strategic partner in INTERPOL, contributing to various operations to secure Europe from the growing threat of organised crime.
