Spokesperson of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov could not confirm whether Vladimir Putin's visit to Serbia is being prepared.

Earlier on Tuesday, Russian Ambassador in Belgrade Aleksandr Chepurin said that the visit of Putin to Serbia is expected in October or November.

According to TASS, when asked if certain specific deadlines for the visit had been set, Peskov replied "No, not for now."

Peskov also said that for now there were no concrete dates for such a visit to be realized, nor has it been confirmed that it is already being prepared.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Wednesday that he asked his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin for help in solving the Kosovo problem in international organizations.

“No solution can be found in the United Nations without Russia’s approval and in that sense Russia will very actively monitor our talks and everything that could happen and will react on time,” he told reporters in Moscow, adding Moscow will not be directly involved in the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue under European Union auspices.

Foreign policy commentator Bosko Jaksic and Chair of the Centre for Strategic Alternatives Aleksandar Mitic told TV N1 that Russia is in favour of maintaining “status quo” in Kosovo.

Both interlocutors agreed Kosovo would be a dominant topic in Vucic-Putin meeting in Moscow, but they disagreed when it comes to Serbia’s position related to Kosovo, TV N1 reported.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic spoke on Wednesday for Prva TV about his phone call earlier in the afternoon with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Vucic stressed that the conversation was "long and rich in content."

"If I may say - and I've met with him many times - today in his words I felt probably the highest degree of support, as well as in (his) reactions, because I know him well," the president said, adding that he asked Putin "what his advice was."

Russia wants to include Serbia in the free trade zone of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU), Vladimir Putin has said, according to RT.

This could open new opportunities for development of business links, Putin said, and added that discussions were underway.

Te broadcaster paid special attention to Putin's meeting in the Kremlin earlier this week with Serbian counterpart Aleksandar Vucic.

Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti writes that, according to their knowledge, the most important points of future relations between Serbia and Russia have been clarified.

The daily quote the following points:

* Russia will firmly represent Belgrade's positions regarding the final status of Kosovo

* Moscow, as a manufacturer, has generally agreed that Serbia can negotiate with the Belarusians about the purchase of the S-300 PVO system

The Serbian Foreign Ministry (MFA) said on Tuesday it remained committed to overcoming disagreements and enhancing bilateral relations with Ukraine.

This comes despite the insistence by Ukraine's ambassador to Belgrade on the stance that Russia is using Serbia to create chaos and provoke a war in the Balkans, Tanjug reported, citing a press release issued by the MFA.

Vladimir Putin's United Russia party supports the decision of the Kosovo Serb party, Srpska lista, to enter the Kosovo Government, Belgrade announced on Thursday.

Russia's ruling party has lent important support to the decision of the main Kosovo Serb party - with Belgrade's support - to enter the Kosovo government.
