Serbian Minister of Mines and Energy Aleksandar Antic said that Serbia would not allow the seizure of its property, which is precisely what the Pristina authorities were trying to achieve with their decisions, Radio KIM reported.

“There is no doubt that Serbia is majority owner of Trepca and it is a fact that everyone in the world has to respect, so any talks about Trepca cannot be conducted without the participation of the Government of the Republic of Serbia,” Antic said, adding "as it was the case until now, Serbia would continue to take care of the Serbs working for Trepca, and about work and development of this company".

“Since the beginning of the dialogue with Pristina, we have been opening the issue of property, and President Vucic personally put this issue on the table, but the talks on these issues have been permanently postponed,” Antic underlined.
