Former Minister for Kosovo and Metohija in the Serbian Government, Slobodan Samardzic assessed today that regardless if “delineation” between Kosovo and Serbia is realistic or not, the stance of Raska-Prizren Eparchy dignitaries remain as a warning that not a single piece of Kosovo and Metohija territory must be surrendered, Danas daily reports. Samardzic termed President Vucic’s announcements on delineation “as a miserable trade of something that does not belong to him,” while the stance of Serbian Orthodox Church dignitaries is how statesmen should react – we do not give away what it ours,

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he respects the Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC) and its representatives very much, BETA news agency reported. He added he won’t be saying bad things about representatives of the SOC, who, as he said, “throw stones at him on a daily basis.” “I have full trust in the Patriarch Irinej. I belong to the Serbian Orthodox Church and if you expect me to say something bad about it, I won’t do that, not even about those who are throwing stones at me on a daily basis.
