 | | Since the breakup of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1989, the foreign policy of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (renamed Serbia and Montenegro in 2003) was characterized primarily by a desire to secure its political and geopolitical position and the solidarity of ethnic Serbs in the Balkan region through a strong nationalist campaign. |
 | | Immediately preceding the NATO bombing campaign of the F.R.Y. in spring 1999, the U.S. and most European countries severed relations with the F.R.Y., and the U.S. embassy was closed. |
 | | Since October 5, 2000, foreign embassies, including that of the U.S., have reopened, and the F.R.Y./SaMhas regained its seat in such international organizations as the OSCE and the UN and is actively participating in IMF and World Bank projects. |
