Југословенско-норвешки односи (1920–1941)
Yugoslav-Norwegian Relations (1920–1941)

Summary/Abstract: Serbia opened its Legation in Copenhagen after the October Revolution in Russia in order to strengthen its international position. The Yugoslav Envoy in the Danish capital was accredited for Denmark and Norway. Norway was the first country which recognized the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. However, the Yugoslav Legation in Copenhagen was closed by 1920. The lack of more intensive diplomatic relations was not an obstacle for businessmen from Yugoslavia and Norway to develop economic relations, although the participation of Norway in the Yugoslav trade exchange was quite low. Relations between the two countries were maintained during the Second World War, and they were intensified after the war in new international circumstances, when Yugoslavia decided to open its Legation in Oslo, for the first time in history.
