Summary/Abstract: In 2014, nato should encourage belgrade to deliver on tangible short-term steps palatable to the public opinion and coalition parties constituencies, such as nominating a new serbian ambassador to nato (after the tragic death of ambassador milinković, his job has been vacant for more than a year). it is very likely that serbia will first enter the Eu (in 2020 at the earliest) and only then decide about its potential membership in nato. however, in the meantime it will need to develop practical vision of how to use its relationship with nato for strategic advancement of serbia’s role in international security and military missions out of Europe. hopes are that the first ipap might be approved and its implementation started in 2014.
