Cvetkovic expressed gratitude for Cyprus’s principled stance on not recognising Kosovo’s independence, and its support for the EU integration process in Serbia.
The Cypriot Foreign Minister said that Cyprus’s stance is that the status of Kosovo-Metohija must be determined by dialogue, in agreement with Serbia, within the framework of the UN.
The two sides expressed willingness to continue and strengthen economic cooperation and to cherish the traditional friendly relations between Serbia and Cyprus.
