State Secretary in the Serbian Foreign Affairs Ministry, Veljko Odalovic said the UN Security Council is a natural place for the talks on Kosovo and Metohija.

He added, Serbia would insist to reach an agreement on mandatory periodical reporting on the situation in Kosovo. Odalovic also noted the situation in Kosovo and Metohija is not good and it is in the interest of SC member-states and other UN members to discuss about that.

He underlined holding of the sessions must not depend on the will of anyone, therefore it is necessary to agree how often the sessions on Kosovo would take place.

He also welcomed the statement of the US Ambassador in Pristina Philip Kosnett who said the war criminals have no place in the Kosovo Government, in relation to the appointment of a war crimes convict Sylejman Selimi as political adviser to the PM Ramush Haradinaj.
