Serbian translation:bureau of a foreign media
Explanation:
you have to look at the whole of

"dopisništvo inostranog medija"

which in fact expresses clearly that the "bureau" itself is not "foreign" when you are inside Serbia [from which viewpoint you would expect a lawmaker in Serbia to write?] - the "bureau" is in Serbia, what is "foreign" is the media organisation operating from that bureau.

strano dopisništvo = foreign bureau = "abroad" from the viewpoint of the main office/the country where is the main office

dopisništvo inostranog medija = clearly stating that from the viewpoint of Serbia / of the lawmaker, the media organisation is "from abroad" - while their "bureau" in Serbia is certainly not "abroad" from Serbia.

disagree  Daryo: wrong viewpoint - that's the translation for "strano dopisništvo" i.e. a bureau that is "abroad" from the country where is the main office / where the writer is.

Explanation:
News bureau je dopisništvo, dok je foreign bureau strano dopisništvo, a to vi zapravo i tražite. Ja bih prvu rečenicu započeo sa "Foreign Bureau (hereinafter "the Bureau")..."
