Kosovo is Serbia, says Serbia's ambassador to Albania

"Kosovo is Serbia, to you it is independent, to us it is not. To us Kosovo is a part of the territory of Serbia and there is no possibility of us accepting an alternative. It (Kosovo) was, it is, and will be a part of Serbia," Zaric added.

However, he said, this fact does not have to influence relations between Serbia and Albania.

During the Christmas celebrations, a Montenegrin priest in Shkoder made similar statements, describing Kosovo as Serbia's "holy place."
