Pupin Initiative with the National Guard of Ohio
Discussion about the 20 years of the Ohio-Serbia partnership and future civilian cooperation with the Ohio National Guard

Excellent conversation with the Ohio National Guard about the existing cooperation with Serbia and plans for the coming year, which will mark 20 years of interstate partnership. This is one of the most significant partnerships that the U.S. National Guard has with any country in the world. We also discussed opportunities to expand this cooperation into the civilian sector, and the Pupin Initiative is open to such a partnership.
The President of the Pupin Initiative, Vuk Velebit, met with the delegation of the Ohio National Guard at the Guard’s headquarters in Columbus. Many thanks to the generals for their warm welcome and engaging discussion.
