Within the framework of a training programme that envisages a tour throughout the Balkan countries, a group of seventy-two young Turkish diplomats were welcomed today in the premises of the Regional Cooperation Council (RCC) Secretariat by Deputy RCC Secretary General, Jelica Minić.

Deputy Secretary General Minić presented the young diplomats with the organisation’s mission, priorities and activities, with a focus on the RCC priority areas of economic and social development, energy and infrastructure, justice and home affairs, security cooperation, building human capital, and parliamentary cooperation.

The guests from the Republic of Turkey chose to visit the RCC Secretariat as they estimated it would substantially contribute to the success of their training programme and offer them an opportunity to enhance understanding of the functioning of a regionally owned international organisation with a key role in South East Europe.
