Dacic: Vucic will be pressured in Berlin, meeting organized without knowledge of EU (TV Pink, Tanjug, B92)

President Aleksandar Vucic would face pressure in Berlin over Kosovo and Metohija, therefore the meetings he would have in Beijing with Chinese and Russian presidents are very important, Serbian Foreign Affairs Minister Ivica Dacic told TV Pink.

Dacic noted he does not expect pressure related to making some new framework of the content of the agreement with Pristina, but “there would certainly be the culmination of pressure on Serbia to continue the dialogue regardless of Pristina tariffs.”

Dacic also said the meeting in Berlin, organized by the German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the French President Emanuel Macron caused controversies in the EU and it was organized without the knowledge of Brussels, EU High Representative Federica Mogherini and other EU member states.

Dacic stressed the meetings in Beijing are also important because of strong pressure Vucic is exposed to so Serbia would cease its campaign on withdrawal of recognitions of Kosovo.

He also said disinformation are often in the world that Russia and Serbia have different stances on the Kosovo issue, which is not accurate, adding that the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov underlined yesterday again that Russia would support any solution Serbia deems to be in its interest.

Dacic said the internal stability of Serbia is important because of the position in negotiations on Kosovo, saying an imagine is being created there is a political uncertainty which undermines Belgrade’s position in the negotiations with Pristina.
