Russia in trying in different places, not only in the Balkans but also in Europe, to show the weakness and incompetence, primarily of the EU, says Ivan Vejvoda.

"The weakening and slowing down of the EU enlargement process in the Western Balkans opens up space for countries like Russia, and not only for them, but in different ways for both China and Turkey, and even for the Arab Emirates - the space for certain political and economic, and I would say religious activities," Vejvoda said.

State Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Serbia Biljana Popovic claims that 400 Kosovo citizens are fighting on the side of terrorists throughout the world, reports Belgrade based daily Politika quoting the Ministry's announcement.

Aleksandar Vucic informed Chinese Ambassador Li Manchang about "the danger of the announced formation of the army of the so-called Kosovo on December 14."
