Truth is the only "weapon" that Serbia uses to convince other countries to withdraw recognition of the unilaterally proclaimed independence of Kosovo.

Serbian Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic told Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti.

He thus reacted to the assertion of Kosovo Foreign Minister Behgjet Pacolli that he had "knowledge" of Belgrade "promising financial support and arms" to some smaller countries in return for revoking their recognition of Kosovo.

President Aleksandar Vucic has thanked President of Palau Thomas Remengesau for his country's decision to annul its recognition Kosovo. Vucic welcomed Remengesau outside the building of the General Secretariat of the president of the Republic in Belgrade on Monday.

Speaking about bilateral relations with Palau, Vucic noted that an agreement on friendship and cooperation, signed earlier in the day, was a foundation for development of cooperation in various areas.

The Republic of Palau has suspended all previous decisions and declarations on Kosovo, states a note the country's president delivered on Monday in Belgrade.

President Tommy Esang Remengesau handed the note to Serbian Foreign Affairs Minister and First Deputy PM Ivica Dacic.

With this, Palau has suspended, pending the outcome of the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue, its previous decision to recognize Kosovo.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic told morning RTS News that he is not optimistic that a final solution for Kosovo will be reached, but that he is ready for difficult decisions. He says that it must be a compromise.

The Republic of Palau is the 13th country that has withdrawn the recognition of Kosovo's independence. The president of that republic is in Belgrade today and where will meet with Aleksandar Vucic.
