Belgrade - Justice Minister Nikola Selaković said today that the Constitutional Court of Serbia (USS) should be declared incompetent to determine the constitutionality of the Brussels agreement between Belgrade and Pristina, because it is a political, not a legal act.

- The Constitutional Court is not competent to assess the political act as it will take over the role of the Government of Serbia, determining and leading the policy - said Selaković at a public hearing on constitutionality of an agreement signed in Brussels in April 2013 on the proposal of the Democratic Party of Serbia.

Representatives of the authorities, proposers and legal experts participate in a public hearing, taking place in the Constitutional Court.

Justice Minister assessed that political context is as such that essential autonomy of Kosovo and Metohija needs to be determined in negotiations with Pristina before adopting an appropriate Constitutional Law.

On behalf of the proposers, Kosta Cavoski assessed that agreement between Belgrade and Pristina represents a general legal act and this can see and a person with no elementary legal knowledge.

Cavoski called on the Constitutional Court to decide based on its conscience and not to fall on "legal sophistries" of the authorities.

President of the Constitutional Court Vesna Ilic Prelic said that the court will make decision alone, but that situation is specific which is why the public debate was organized where different arguments will be heard.
