Summary/Abstract: BCSP researcher Katarina Djokic analyzes the possible benefits for Serbia from international cooperation in the field of defense economy on the case of demilitarization of surplus weapons and improvement of the capacities of the Technical Repair Institute Kragujevac. This paper analyses the potential benefits for Serbia of co-operation with NATO in the field of defence economy. Although the Republic of Serbia has formally envisaged a series of mechanisms for co-operation with NATO in this area, practical co-operation is currently limited. One of the most tangible forms of co-operation is the use of funding from the Trust Fund for the Demilitarization of Surplus Ammunition to improve the capacities of the Kragujevac Technical Overhaul Facility (TRZ). This project is therefore taken as a case study.
