Kosovo online portal reports, quoting TV Pink, that President of the Republic of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic said, at the beginning of the meeting with the President of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, Valentina Matviyenko, that he was very concerned about the situation in Kosovo, especially regarding recent events and attempts by Albanians to bring a decision on abolishing the Serbian List.

Serbian Internal Affairs Minister Nebojsa Stefanovic said on Friday that the Kosovo authorities want to use membership in Interpol to reinforce statehood not to improve their crime fighting capabilities.

The minister told Belgrade based TV Pink that a decision to induct Kosovo into Interpol would be political and would jeopardize that international organization’s professionalism.

Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djuric told TV Pink on Sunday that October 6th elections are essential important for Serbs and important for preserving ‘’Serbia’s influence in the province’’ and called all the Serbs to use their voice and be united.

Serbia’s internal state – primarily when it comes to the opposition, is the result of foreign services’ attempts to complicate Serbia’s position on the issue of negotiations – the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic said last night on the Hit Tvit talk-show on Belgrade based TV Pink.

Internal Affairs Minister Nebojsa Stefanovic told Belgrade based TV Pink that the Serbian authorities are talking to every possible country about Pristina's request to join Interpol.

Stefanovic says that the aim of those contacts was to prevent the “politicization” of the international police organization whose members voted not to grant membership to Kosovo in 2018.

President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic says that he is 99 percent sure that the Paris meeting of the Western Balkans leaders with Kosovo, planned for July 1, would not be held because the Albanians “are not ready to talk about anything important,” Serbian media reported.

Vucic adds that his impression was the Albanians wanted to send a message to the Germans and French that the Europeans should not take part in solving the Kosovo issue.

Speaking to the Belgrade based TV Pink, Vucic said:

Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic says he will always react when someone speaks lies before the international community, reports Serbian media.

“I reacted like any honourable man would to a lie,” Dacic said to Belgrade based TV Pink, adding “what does anyone care what someone said after the session, did anyone listen to what was said afterwards”.

Statement by Hashim Thaci that Community/Association of Serbian municipalities (ZSO) will not be formed is the best test for the authority of the European Union, said Aleksandar Vulin, Serbian Minister of Defense, reports KIM radio, quoting Belgrade based TV Pink.

According to Vulin, if this statement goes without sanctions, it will mean that the EU is leaving the Western Balkans both in diplomatic and security terms.

The military-police parade ''Defence of Freedom '' was a clear message to friends and enemies, everyone should interpret it as they see fit, says Aleksandar Vulin.

Asked to comment on the claim made by some Western media that Serbia was engaging in "sabre-rattling" during a time of instability in Kosovo and Metohija, the defense minister said Belgrade did not contribute to that instability.
