Foreign minister says Kosovo won't join Interpol in November

Foreign Affairs Minister Ivica Dacic said the member states of the Interpol were facing a strong lobbying of Kosovo representatives to make Kosovo a member of that organisation, but, as he assessed, this would not happen during the November session of the Interpol.

Dacic told the Radio Television of Serbia (RTS), the public broadcaster, that even some territories and not states only could become the Interpol >> Pročitaj celu vest na sajtu N1 televizija << member states but only with the consent of the state, it is a part of.

“Voting the membership of Kosovo would mean a direct breach of the Interpol statute and violation of all rules we have been establishing for the past decades, and that is that the issue of status (of Kosovo) must be solved first and only then its accession to the international organisations,” explained Dacic.

According to him, Kosovo’s Interpol membership is a politically motivated story and enjoys a strong support of the western countries.

The minister also said South Korea’s representative, the current Interpol’s acting President, supported the proposal of the vote on Kosovo at the next session, which, according to Dacic, was not in line with the stance of South Korea which was neutral during the vote on Kosovo’s membership in the UNESCO.

“Since it requires two-thirds of the votes, I don’t believe that Kosovo would pass the vote. If it was about the UNESCO or a political matter, I could tell with 100 percent certainty it won’t happen, but we are facing a strong lobbying here and the presence of various instruments,” Dacic concluded.
