Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djuric said in a statement that the daily sensationalist statements of Pristina proved the best the status of the "southern autonomous province was not what they wanted and how they represented the citizens there," reports RTS.

On the occasion of Kosovo Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj's statement that "the war with Serbia ... will officially be interrupted when the two sides recognize each other," Djuric pointed out that war rhetoric was something that should have been the subject of a harsh reaction of all those in the international community, who care about stability and a peaceful future.

"War stories and repetition of the mantra about the recognition of the unilaterally proclaimed independence, for which no one in Serbia was asked, and even in Kosovo and Metohija, by the separatists in Pristina, is a common running away from resolving the problem," Djuric said in a statement.

According to him, a better future for Serbs and Albanians can only be achieved by reaching a compromise that will satisfy the interests of both sides.

Earlier in the press conference, Haradinaj said, among other things, that the Kosovo Army would be formed in 2018 and that, as he claimed, “he gained the trust of all parties, even Serbs from Kosovo." The Serbian List also said that it expected the international community to respond on sabre-rattling of the political representatives of Kosovo Albanians and rejected the claim that the Serbs in Kosovo support the formation of the so-called army of Kosovo.

"In the inability to provide better conditions for all citizens in Kosovo and Metohija, political representatives of Kosovo Albanians offer war and separatist stories to citizens," said the statement of the Serbian List, reports RTS. Thus, added the statement, they said that for Pristina war with the Serbs was not over, because of which the Serbian List expected the most urgent reaction of the international community.

The Serbian List said that sabre-rattling was more than dangerous for the peace and security of all in the Balkans. They said also that it was the notorious lie that Serbs support the formation of the so-called Kosovo Army.

"We repeat once more that the Serbian List will never support the formation of such a quasi-army, which is contrary to UN Security Council Resolution 1244 and the Kumanovo Military Technical Agreement, but above all the interests and security of the Serbian people and the state of Serbia," the statement said.

The Serbian list reminded those who want to forget that the Kumanovo agreement do not envisage the formation of any new army in the territory of Kosovo, where the only military forces can be KFOR and up to a thousand members of the Serbian Army, with the consent of KFOR, RTS reports.
