Yugoslavia Index
The foreign policy of Yugoslavia was conducted at the highest
level by the State Presidency, the president of which was the
official representative of the country. The line of authority
extended from the president through the Federal Executive Council
to the Secretariat of Foreign Affairs. Nationality quotas for
personnel in the secretariat and subordinate levels ensured each
republic an equal voice in foreign policy formulation. The quota
was also used in making foreign service appointments and staffing
embassies abroad--a policy criticized because it did not always
permit the most qualified personnel access to foreign policy
positions. Committees of the LCY and SAWPY (also apportioned by
nationality) also had significant foreign policy input.
