On 21-23 September the Mission to Skopje organized a simulation exercise for 60 police officers and three public prosecutors from the region. The purpose of this exercise was to test operational capabilities in fighting organized crime at the regional level (including identify potential loopholes), utilize tactical elements and to discuss all other potential issues stemming from international police co-operation in fighting organized crime.
On 23 September the results of the operation were presented. After video presentations, participants were able to exchange their experience, crosscheck their operational methods and tactics, as well as verify legal tools in relation to local laws and bilateral agreements governing regional co-operation in criminal matters.
