The Ministry of Defence and the Serbian Armed Forces make proposals and oversee implementation of defence policy, while ensuring the enforcement of laws, international treaties, and acts issued by the National Assembly, the Government, and the President of the Republic within the defence sector.

The Ministry closely monitors regional and global security developments, placing significant emphasis on international cooperation in peacekeeping missions. This approach enhances its capacity and strengthens its global reputation.

The Serbian Armed Forces stands as the foundation of national security and pride. Its long-term development and modernization efforts focus on enhancing both equipment and personnel, with the goal of securing a peaceful future for citizens while safeguarding the country’s freedom and independence.

Significant progress has been made over the past decade through the acquisition of cutting-edge combat systems, aircrafts, and weapons, along with the modernization of domestic systems. This is further supported by continuous investment in developing highly skilled and motivated personnel.

The Ministry of Defence aims to strengthen military power not because of the regional threat, but rather to deter the enemy forces against any aggression towards Serbia and its people, with the main goal of maintaining military neutrality.

The Ministry of Defence places significant emphasis on fostering international military cooperation with all nations, guided by mutual interests and respect. Military neutrality enables independent decision-making, focused solely on national interests.
