The Director of the Serbian Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djurid said that proposal of Serbia’s Minister for Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic on division of Kosovo is ‘personal opinion’, along with the proposal of a Russian diplomat on exchange of territories.

“Those proposals were personal opinions and we are treating them as such,” said Djuric. He also said that chapter 35 in negotiations on Serbia’s accession in the EU, which refers to Kosovo, is most complex part of negotiations in political terms.

“We are ahead of a challenging task to preserve, by using skilled diplomacy, the support of those member states which didn’t recognize the independence, and to please those who look at the unilateral declaration of independence of Kosovo as to one of their favorite projects,” Djuric said.
