“You know my stance. I made it public several times. I think it would be useful for Serbia and Serbian people in general,” Dacic said, after ceremonial liturgy at the Church of Holly Virgin Maria, held to commemorate Armistice Day and the end of the WWI.
Dacic also noted, that relations with the Vatican are often viewed through the problems that existed in relation with the Church in Croatia and Second World War.

He also termed as positive her readiness to be familiar with the course of Belgrade-Pristina dialogue. Dacic added that Kosovo and Metohija would be a topic this week as well, and that he would be present at the UN SC session on Kosovo.
“We would remain constructive. We want dialogue to continue, to peaceful resolve all the issues,” Dacic noted.
