Dusan Teodorovic, a member of Serbia’s Academy of Sciences and Arts, called on Monday on President Aleksandar Vucic to resign for failing to solve the problem of Kosovo after six years of negotiations.

Speaking to N1 Belgrade morning talk show, Teodorovic said Vucic should resign after saying that Serbia has nothing in Kosovo today, and that "even a meter of Kosovo is a gain."

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic on Saturday received State Secretary of the Holy See Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Serbian government announced.

Ivica Dacic says the demands to include "new players" in the Kosovo dialogue now - only to strengthen Pristina's position - are completely unreasonable.

The foreign minister of Serbia at the same time stressed that pressure will not accelerate reaching a compromise.
"The United States is already very much well informed and indirectly involved in the whole process," Dacic told the daily Vecernje Novosti, commenting on the call of Kosovo Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj to engage the United States in the dialogue.

A Serbian opposition MP’s open letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin drew fierce reactions from the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) which claimed that he made death threats against President Aleksandar Vucic.

In his letter, MP Slavisa Ristic drew parallels between Vucic and the late Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic who was assassinated in 2003 which SNS officials interpreted as a death threat.

Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic said on Friday that another country has revoked its recognition of Kosovo.

The first deputy PM told reporters that the name of the country would be revealed next week - as the note is not yet official.
During a news conference at the Foreign Ministry in Belgrade, Dacic said that whenever a country withdraws its recognition of Kosovo diplomats from the West and Kosovo's Foreign Minister Behgjet Pacolli travel to that country to persuade them not to do it.

Metropolitan Amfilohije Radovic, a Serbian Orthodox bishop, the current head of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Montenegro, said on Thursday that who called a referendum on Kosovo status “has no sound mind,” Kossev website reported.

"The leadership in Belgrade will bear terrible pressure in the upcoming weeks, which Belgrade itself may have partially induced," said journalist Milivoje Mihajlovic.

The 2025 target date for Serbia’s European Union membership is not a reality, but it is not impossible either, Toby Vogel, a Brussels-based analyst told N1 Belgrade.

However, Vogel, Research Communications Officer from the Centre for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) added there were considerable obstacles to overcome and that Belgrade would have to make a significant concession, while Pristina would not but would benefit from the situation because there was no balance of power between the two.

The Kosovo and Metohija Office announced that the Minister of Defense, Aleksandar Vulin, was banned from visiting Kosovo, reports Radio Television of Serbia (RTS).

The Office for KiM strongly condemned "the scandalous decision of Pristina and mediators in the Brussels dialogue'', reports RTS.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic spoke on the phone with US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Wess Mitchell on Wednesday.
