PM "lost trust in Pristina," not optimistic ahead of talks (B92)
Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic said on Monday that he has "lost his trust in Pristina" and that for this reason, the dialogue in Brussels will be "difficult."
Speaking during a news conference with the chairman of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia-Herzegovina, Vucic added that he "above all" expects EU's "clear messages":
"I want to ask EU officials not to support the bringing of tools and weapons where they don't belong," he said, in apparent reference to the incidents earlier in the month surrounding a train traveling from Belgrade to northern Kosovo, and added: "Everything else, all other topics, will happen some other time."
He also advised Pristina "not to play with tools and weapons."
And while the negotiations will be "difficult due to the loss of trust," it is "important to secure peace, stability and safety for the Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija."
"I don't expect too much from tomorrow's meeting, but I expect the situation to calm down, and clear messages... we have difficult discussions ahead, and any result we achieve is good," Vucic said, according to Beta.
On Sunday, Vucic held a news conference at the government HQ in Belgrade to announce that dialogue with Pristina would be continued in Brussels on January 24.
Vucic also said that the meeting would be attended by Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic.
