Petar Miljević
Ambassador of Yugoslavia to EEC (1971-1977)

Short bio

Petar Miljević was Yugoslavia’s second ambassador to the EEC from 1971 to 1977. He succeeded Miloš Oprešnik, confirming the crucial role played by the Yugoslav embassy in Community Brussels. A permanent member of the Yugoslav delegation within the EEC-Yugoslav Mixed Commission, he was aware of the development of the EEC as an international actor. Between 1974 and 1975, he insisted particularly with Miloš Minić and Boriš Šnuderl on the need to avoid Yugoslavia’s isolation between the EEC and COMECON, at a time when the two regional organisation were developing direct contacts.
