Given our good relations with all the key stakeholders in the crisis, Serbia can contribute to the process. Our chief objectives are preventing the crisis from escalating into a larger conflict, ensuring a sustainable political process, and preserving the inclusive and cooperative nature of the OSCE s work.

Slovenia is one of Romania's valued partners in NATO, in the European Union and in regional affairs, and I would like to wish Mr. Rupel, from this particular perspective of our bilateral relations, a very successful term as Chairman in Office of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).
