NATO-Russia Council Conference Begins in Ljubljana Today
More than 150 representatives from 27 countries will discuss ways of fighting terrorism as a four-day NATO-Russia Council conference begins in Ljubljana on Tuesday.
The experience of the latest terror attacks in the US, Turkey, Spain and Russia are to be debated by civil crisis and military experts from Russia and NATO members, the Slovenian Foreign Ministry said in a press release.
Information is to be exchanged about national anti-terror measures and the capabilities of individual states in order to make the fight against terrorism more effective, according to the ministry.
The conference is organised by the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies and the US mission at NATO in collaboration with the Slovenian Foreign Ministry.
The NATO-Russia Council was set up in May 2002 to encourage NATO's cooperation with Russia in a number of fields where the two sides have similar interests.
