FOREIGN MINISTER JEREMIC MEETS WITH
UN HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR REFUGEES

Serbian Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremic met today with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres.

During the meeting, the discussions focused on the resolution of the problem of refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Serbia.

Minister Jeremic particularly highlighted the need for an early return of all refugees to the Republic of Croatia and the return of IDPs from Kosovo and Metohija.

It was noted that all refugees and IDPs must be ensured a safe return and the use of the property they are currently deprived of.

Jeremic and Guterres agreed on the necessity of holding an international conference on the resolution of the refugee problem in the region, which should take place in Belgrade by the end of the year.
