"Today is a day of shame in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. For the first time in history, the membership of something that is not a state, and which does not meet the basic conditions in the domain of human rights and freedoms, has been recommended.
On the contrary, for 11 years now, it has refused to form the Community of Serb Municipalities, which is their international obligation, and is implementing a policy of terror against the Serbian people and ethnic cleansing.
With this decision, imposed by the force of international powers, they undermined the very foundations of the Council of Europe and the international legal order.
What principle of protection of territorial integrity will they continue to talk about, when they violated the territorial integrity of Serbia?
We will continue our struggle with all our strength, we will fight so that this decision is not adopted at the Committee of Ministers on 16 May.
And we will see the value of the word of the international community that they gave to President Aleksandar Vucic that "Kosovo" will not be admitted to the Council of Europe until it forms the Community of Serb Municipalities.
Or it will be a lie again," Dacic said.
