The position of head of the Permanent Mission to the UN will be vacant, after the Government yesterday accepted the proposal to recall Željko Perović from that post.
The Government's decision states that he will be recalled due to moving to another place, which will be Austria.
Perović will succeed Igor Milić as ambassador in Vienna, whose mandate has expired and who is returning to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
