The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Serbia Ivica Dačić said today that Belgrade received an information that the Prime Minister of the provisional institutions in Priština Albin Kurti would be filing a request for admission into the European Union in December, that is, for starting the process to give candidacy status to the self-proclaimed Kosovo.

“The Albanian separatist Kurti, in his delusional euphoria, wants to file a request for admission into the European Union in December, that is, to start that process, for the self-proclaimed Kosovo to get candidacy status. Those are serious informations that we are receiving from the European Union, that this is being planned, so we have made the decision to have urgent discussions, just in case, with all the countries that do not recognize Kosovo,” said Dačić in Sofia, where a meeting of Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Central European Initiative is being held.

He said that he arrived in Sofia in order to bring the Bulgarian Minister of Foreign Affairs Nikolay Milkov up to speed on that information, but he also pointed out that the most important meeting he had today was the one with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary Peter Szijjarto, who, according to Dačić, is without a question one of Serbia’s greatest friends, in addition to Viktor Orban.

Dačić said that he spoke on the subject with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Slovakia, as well as that he would be going on a bilateral visit to Greece tomorrow, and he is also planning to get in touch with the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of Romania, Spain and Cyprus to make sure that those countries vote against, and to see to it that, as Dačić said, no negative surprises happen.

“It is our belief that this is impossible, but the meeting with Szijjarto was very important to me for that reason, and I can relate his very strong words that Hungary would not support any such request by Kosovo to start the admission process, if one should be filed, the same way as it will not support considering the proposal for membership in the Council of Europe,” Dačić pointed out.
