According to the co-president of the Algerian part of the mixed committee, Major General Smail Seddiki, this session, which was preceded by a visit paid by the Chief of Staff of the People’s National Army of Algeria, reflects the commitment of the senior military leadership to improving the cooperation between the two countries, particularly in the defence industry field, in which Serbia is considered an important partner.



On the second day of the session, General Seddiki was received by State Secretary Branko Živanović. During the talks, they agreed that defence cooperation is on the rise, but that there is still room for improvement, as well as establishment and development of cooperation in other areas of common importance.
