(KosovoCompromise Staff) Thursday, June 03, 2010
They would discuss the security situation along the administrative line between Kosovo and central Serbia, and in Kosovo, the Serbian Defense Ministry announced in a statement.
Miletic and Bentler are scheduled to discuss the cooperation between the Serbian Army and the NATO-led KFOR, as well as the security situation along the administrative line and in Kosovo, said the statement.
Miletic and Bentler met in VS Base Jug, near Bujanovac, on April 15, when they discussed the security situation in Kosovo and in the administrative line region with Kosovo.
That was the first meeting in two years at the top level by members of the Serbian Army and KFOR, because the relations between them were reduced to a lower level in June 2008, said the statement.
NATO Council of Ministers previously decided to support the setting up of the Kosovo Security Forces, while the then Serbian Chief of General Staff Gen. Zdravko Ponos decided to suspend meetings with KFOR at the top level.
