CINCHULATION FOREIGN POLICY STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA
CINCHULATION FOREIGN POLICY STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA

Summary/Abstract: The Republic of Serbia is going through a very difficult path of disintegration of the former SFR Yugoslavia, which began in 1991 as one of the consequences of the end of the Cold War. The disintegration of the SFRY did not end precisely on the territory of Serbia, where after the NATO aggression against the FRY, a United Nations protectorate was introduced on the territory of the autonomous province of Kosovo and Metohija, and the temporary Vasti authorities in Pristina proclaimed an independent Kosovo. After the NATO aggression against the FRY in 1999, social changes and a change of government took place in Serbia in 2000. The new authorities fundamentally and declaratively stood for Euro-Atlantic integration, that is, for membership in the EU and NATO. However, after the separation of Serbia and Montenegro in 2006, the National Assembly of Serbia proclaimed military neutrality, so not - NATO. On the other hand, Serbia remained committed to EU membership, which was also determined as a national interest in 2019. As an independent and independent country since 2006, Serbia, apart from its commitment to EU membership, has entered into strategic partnerships with several countries, but has not adopted a foreign policy strategy. The aim of this work is to analyse the practical foreign policy behaviour of Serbia in international relations. The basic hypothesis of the research is as follows: Serbia does not have an adopted foreign policy strategy, but its foreign policy shows the character of a cinchulation strategy. To reach the goal and confirm the hypothesis, scientific methods were used: comparative, content analysis and case study.
