A Serbian ruling party official and Chairman of the parliamentary Committee for Kosovo, Milovan Drecun says that the authorities in Pristina are trying to draw attention away from investigations against key figures of the war-time Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) by claiming that Serbia committed genocide.

Serbian Foreign Affairs Minster Ivica Dacic said he doesn't believe an initiative to establish a court for crimes allegedly committed by Serbs in Kosovo will receive international support.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic voiced today reservation towards signals from Pristina on the possible revocation of 100 percent tax imposed on goods from central Serbia, Tanjug news agency reports.

“For the sake of Albanians, I want to say that I am not an enemy to them, on the contrary, I am an enemy to everyone who wishes to expel and kill the Serb people. Therefore, I understand the statement of Kadri Veseli,” Vucic told Prva TV.

Serbian Minister of Internal Affairs, Nebojsa Stefanovic said that “the obvious aim of Kosovo Assembly Speaker Kadri Veseli claims, that Serbian President is Kosovo enemy, is to draw the target on Vucic’s head,” Tanjug news agency reported.
