SPAK chief Altin Dumani and special prosecutor Dorina Bejko attended the meeting, which brought together prosecutors from four Western Balkan states and 11 Latin American countries.

In his remarks, Dumani underlined the importance of effective cooperation and rapid information exchange with partner agencies.

“SPAK has moved from being an agency that mainly received information to an institution that supplies international partners with verified and operational data, becoming a genuine contributor to security,” Dumani said.

During the event, Dumani also held bilateral meetings with counterparts from Paraguay, Peru, Chile, Brazil, Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Ecuador.

According to SPAK, the agreements and bilateral contacts aim to strengthen cooperation in combating organized crime, particularly drug trafficking.

This meeting was part of a wider three-day event that brought together senior judicial representatives from Latin American, Western Balkan and MENA partners, in one of the largest assemblies of third-country partners ever hosted at Eurojust.

The meeting focused on strengthening operational cooperation between these regions and the EU, and among the regions themselves. This joint effort aims to reinforce collective responses to serious and organised crime, which continues to evolve with an increasingly transnational dimension.
