Vucic said that the State of Serbia and the Serbian people in Kosovo should lead "wisest and most responsible policy" in order not to repeat the suffering of 17 March 2004.

“17 March, violence and destruction of religious sites must never repeat again,” said Vucic on the occasion of the 11th anniversary of the mass attacks on Kosovo Serbs. During the attacks were killed 19 people, 35 churches and monasteries were destroyed, and several thousand Serbs fled Kosovo.

The prime minister told reporters in Obrenovac that the aim is to protect the national interests of Serbia and the Serbian people in Kosovo, but also the protection of life and strengthening of the economy. “Our aim is to strengthen the possibilities for the survival of our people in Kosovo,” said Vucic.
