President Vučić thanked for the proposal of the Chief Prosecutor Brammertz for the relevant institutions in Serbia to take part in the joint programmes where the IRMCT Office of the Prosecutor would render its assistance in the application of the War Crimes Strategy through training and other forms of support.
The IRMCT Chief Prosecutor Serge Brammertz expressed his dissatisfaction with the regional cooperation and deplored the tardiness in submission of the documentation required for the pending proceedings before the Mechanism.
