Kosovo Foreign Minister Behgjet Pacolli said in an interview with Deutsche Welle (in Serbian) that Serbia "does not have to say that it recognizes Kosovo." It only has to "act like that," he said.

Pristina's claim that possible future US involvement in dialogue with Belgrade is a proposal coming from the official US administration is "incorrect," Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic, who in Washington, told Voice of America, Tanjug reports today.

Ivica Dacic says his message in Washington this week was that there is no stability in the Balkans unless the US finds a common interest with Serbia.

Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic has expressed his belief that the list of countries that recognized Kosovo would ultimately fall to under 100, Serbian media reported.

"We want to reach agreement, we want a just and lasting solution, but to have to recognize unilateral acts - never, not even at the cost of failing to join the European Union.

World power centers have overplayed their hand when they thought it was possible to redraw borders in the Balkans since it is not a part of the EU.
