Kostunica briefed the EU representatives on the current status of talks on Kosovo-Metohija’s future status and stressed that Belgrade has put forward strong arguments proving that the substantial autonomy concept is the best solution and that it is functional and sustainable, which is shown by the examples of Hong Kong and the Oland Islands.

He voiced hope that the EU will support a solution based on a compromise, full respect of the UN Charter, the Serbian Constitution and basic principles of international law, particularly the territorial integrity and sovereignty of internationally recognised states.

He stressed it is crucial for Serbia that the Stabilisation and Association Agreement with the EU is signed as soon as possible and emphasised that the preservation of regional stability is another of its priorities and that, with that kind of attitude, Serbia will continue insisting on the respect of the Dayton Agreement and UN Security Council Resolution 1244 with equal consistency.
