The fight against money laundering, corruption, and organized crime remains one of the most important priorities for Serbia due to its negative impact on the rule of law and the country's economic development. The Council of Europe is committed to providing continuous support to Serbia's state authorities in order to consistently and sustainably improve key mechanisms for preventing and combating money laundering and corruption. This support relies on strong cooperation with state institutions and civil society, and the Council of Europe will continue to assist the Republic of Serbia in enhancing policies in accordance with European and international standards.
