Serbian Foreign Affairs Minister, Ivica Dacic said taxes imposed on Serbian goods must be abolished, and Belgrade is not interested in how this will be achieved, Tanjug news agency reported.

He added, that “those who gave a birth to a political monster in Pristina, must control it.”

“Those who gave the birth to that political monster in Pristina, must resolve the problem and control their “child”. There should be no twisted games, either you will control it or not,” Dacic told journalists following the meeting with his Lebanese counterpart Jobran Bassil.

Asked to comment on the USA State Secretary Mike Pompeo statement that Pristina should lift taxes, and if there is a chance that Pristina for the first time opposes USA, Dacic said he believes it is not possible for Pristina not to obey the USA.

“I think it is a farce, that they do not listen to Washington, I think it is impossible,” Dacic said.

Dacic also warned that one cannot be sure when creating “a monster” how it would behave, because sometimes the monster thinks it is stronger than its creators.

He added it is positive what Pompeo, EU and other states said about Pristina’s decision on taxes, but he sees no effect from it.

“It cannot be that somebody thinks we would now talk about some other topics in dialogue, before taxes are abolished,” Dacic said and urged the international community to treat Pristina the same it would treat Serbia.
