”It falls on all our governments to take measures not only in terms of countering terrorism and providing security to our citizens but also fostering tolerance and nondiscrimination in our societies,” Ivica Dacic said in an inauguration address assuming Serbia’s chairmanship in the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE).
Dacic said that the OSCE's agenda for 2015 included battling foreign terrorists and radical extremists.
“We will devote particular attention this year to the phenomenon of foreign terrorist fighters, as well as violent extremism and radicalization that lead to terrorism, particularly the radicalization of youth,” Dacic said.
The OSCE has been working with government officials, counter-terrorism experts and civil society to counter terrorist radicalization and to uphold human rights and the rule of law, the organization states on its website.
