Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic said that he discussed the proposal for the long-term solution for Kosovo-Metohija with Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic and that the document will be approved by both the prime minister and the president before it is forwarded to the government.

"We will both agree with the proposal before it is presented to the government, because it would be pointless to send any material from the President's office to the government with which Aleksandar Vucic would not agree completely," Nikolic told Belgrade-based Prva Television.

Nikolic stressed that he is certain that if (Kosovo) Albanians accepted that document as well, Serbia would become a member of the EU during his term in office.

"If they do not want us because we did not recognize Kosovo-Metohija as independent, they should tell us so," the Serbian president said.
