Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremic said that Serbia has a reason for optimism as the ICJ’s decision on the legality of the Kosovo Albanian UDI approaches. He said that a UN Security Council meeting dedicated to Kosovo would be held in August, which is when Russia would begin presiding over the council.

He said that Serbia must be aware of the fact that an eventual victory before the International Court of Justice would only be one step on the road to preserving Kosovo. “There is no turning back and there is no letting down,” Jeremic said, adding that five member-states of the EU that have not recognized Kosovo’s independence would stand firm on that stance even after the ICJ gives its opinion on the legality of Kosovo’s independence proclamation, which is expected on July 22. “Russia will not recognize Kosovo either, and we have close cooperation with Russia and all international organizations,” Jeremic said.
