The signing of the new Agreement on cooperation in the field of culture between the governments of Montenegro and Serbia, along with the Agreement on the fight against illegal trade in cultural goods, as well as the improvement of cooperation in the field of the film industry, will be the next steps in order to further improve cultural cooperation and strengthen relations between the two countries.
This was announced by the Ministry of Culture and Media (MKM) at the meeting of the Minister of Culture and Media Dr. Tamara Vujović with the Minister of Culture and Vice President of the Government of Serbia, Maja Gojković, who met in Venice at the 60th International Exhibition of Contemporary Art.
"Previously, the ministers attended the opening of exhibitions in the national pavilions of Montenegro and Serbia. At the meeting, an agreement was reached on the conclusion of a new agreement in the field of culture between governments, which would improve the previous agreement from 2008, primarily in the part related to cultural heritage ", the announcement states.
The MKM said that the interlocutors agreed that in the coming period the Agreement on the fight against illegal trade in cultural goods should be signed, which, they added, would be a significant step forward in improving cultural and comprehensive cooperation in mutual interest.
"The ministers concluded that, bearing in mind the developed institutional cooperation in the field of culture, there is a need to launch initiatives of mutual interest and agreed on the dynamics of the following meetings. It was assessed that the two countries have good cooperation within the framework of international organizations and initiatives, with the ministers particularly emphasizing projects and programs that are implemented within the Forum of Slavic Cultures, which contribute to the strengthening of relations, but also to the promotion of our cultures in Europe and the world," the announcement concludes.
