In a statement to TV Prva, Vučević said that he has information that one of the young men was detained because he was allegedly identified in connection with the Serb protest last year in Zvečan, warning that the situation in Serbia’s southern province is very difficult.
The Prime Minister said that today's meeting between President of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić and EU Special Representative for the Belgrade-Priština Dialogue and other Western Balkan regional issues Miroslav Lajčak serves as a precursor to the next round of talks, that is, the dialogue in Brussels, but that it remains to be seen whether these discussions will produce any results.
According to him, staying engaged in the dialogue is not a matter of meaning, but of responsibility, and Serbia must not be labeled as the culprit and the party responsible for the collapse of the dialogue and the end of the talks, because then a different approach to resolving issues might be adopted, which could endanger the entire country.
Vučević assessed that, given the recent events in Kosovo and Metohija, the prime minister of the provisional institutions of Priština, Albin Kurti, now needs some kind of reaction, crisis or conflict in order to drag Serbia into the conflict.
As he pointed out, the daily mistreatment of our people in Kosovo and Metohija serves the same goal.
Vučević said that Serbia is not giving up and continues to talk and, as much as it can, to exert pressure politically, through dialogue, and diplomatically, and fight for Serbs, Serbia and Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija.
