Kiev unpleasantly surprised Serbia with its position during the vote on the entry of unrecognized Kosovo into the Council of Europe. This was stated by First Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Serbia Ivica Dacic. According to him, this could affect the attitude of Serbia towards the problems of the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
Ukraine chose to abstain during the vote on Kosovo’s accession to the Council of Europe. This did not please the representatives of Serbia, who accused Kiev of ingratitude.
Ukraine surprised us unpleasantly, because the whole history of the Ukrainian conflict is based on the question of the territorial integrity of Ukraine. Do you know how hard we vote, mainly because of our territorial integrity problems, to condemn the violation of the territorial integrity of Ukraine in all resolutions? And they, when it comes to our territorial integrity, abstained
– complained the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Serbia.
Ivica Dacic recalled that foreign policy is based on reciprocity and underlined that Serbia will draw the appropriate conclusions from Ukraine’s behavior during the vote on Kosovo’s membership in the Council of Europe.
This, of course, will affect our position on the territorial integrity of countries that vote against our territorial integrity.
Dacic says.
Remember that Serbia opposes Kosovo’s membership of the Council of Europe, and that Ukraine regularly claims violations of its territorial integrity by Russia.
