Tadić: Serbia ready for compromise

“We want to be a part of the European solution and not its problem, and I believe that Europe, minus Serbia and the western Balkans, is incomplete,” he said, voicing Serbia’s entrenched position on Kosovo:

“Serbia will never give up on its southern province and its European future. We are against Kosovo’s independence.”

Tadić warned that independent Kosovo could destabilize not only the Balkans but other regions as well, citing the Black Sea region that encountered similar problems as an example.

“We have to analyze all the consequences of independence,” Tadić said, adding he would adhere to the presidential duty and protect sovereignty and territorial integrity of his country.

President Tadić is expected to meet with Council of Europe Secretary-General Terry Davis, European Human Rights Court President Jean-Paul Costa and CoE Human Rights Commissioner Thomas Hammarberg during his visit to the Council of Europe.

Serbia currently presides over the CoE, an international governmental organization comprised of 47 members.
