Official: Kosovo solution should be comprehensive
The Serbian government Office for Kosovo chief Marko Djuric said that as long as Serbs and Albanians live on the same space but with opposite interests, there will be no lasting peace and stability, as long as compromise is not achieved. Speaking to Politika daily, he said Serbia is ready for such a compromise, but he was not optimistic about it.
“The only thing that is certain is that because of our people’s future, we don’t have the right to pretend like the problem >> Pročitaj celu vest na sajtu N1 televizija << doesn’t exist, or to leave it to future generations to resolve it,” he noted.
Djuric also said that if they do reach a solution, it will be such that it will only improve the present position of Serbs living in Kosovo and that Serbia will not accept any solution which would not provide better living conditions for the Kosovo Serbs than the present ones.
"This is not just a problem of one part of our population or of our political elite but it is an issue of a far-reaching state and national importance,” he told Politika.
Asked about the potential status of Serbs south of the Ibar river, in case the North of Kosovo becomes part of Serbia, Djuric said they would have more rights than they have now and in case they fail to reach an agreement the state would provide more aid for the enclaves.
Djuric added that the compromise for which Srbia stands should be comprehensive and there should be nothing vague in it.
