Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic said that he believes that Serbia should primarily insist on Chapter 35 relating to Kosovo and on receiving an advance copy of the legally binding agreement text. "We should get the text so as to immediately be able to decide whether we want to go forward with it or not" said Nikolic for TV Pink.

However, even the constant opening of chapters with Brussels is good for Serbia, because it means introducing Serbia to the order of modern states, he added.

He also declared that during the next round of dialogue with Pristina, the Belgrade delegation should insist on the issue of Oliver Ivanovic's verdict, because it represents a pointless attempt at creating a balance and showing that both Serbs and Albanians are being sentenced, ahead of upcoming proceedings before the Special court.
