Summary/Abstract: The change of social order in Yugoslavia after WWII caused significant changes in the Yugoslav diplomacy. Diplomatic missions in other states and international organizations continued functioning but with personal changes. The Yugoslav government didn’t want to establish diplomatic relations with Italy deeming it could secure its political and economic interests in that country only after signing the peace treaty. The signing of the peace treaty in Paris didn’t bring about the expected solution to moot questions in Yugoslav-Italian relations. The diplomatic relations were reestablished but the two governments continued pursuing the foreign policy that disturbed the good neighborly relations. The first Yugoslav ambassador in Rome was Dr. Mladen Iveković. The Embassy worked under difficult circumstances. The staff of the Embassy strove to secure the ownership of the Embassy building and they contributed to signing of 25 agreements settling permanently or temporarily the bilateral relations.
