Dacic: The masks should fall to determine whether the Brussels agreement still exists

"We have to see, after nine years of refusing to form the Community of Serbian Municipalities, whether anyone is thinking of implementing the Brussels Agreement, because that's why we signed it," Dacic told RTS.

According to him, Serbia is not a party to the conflict, Serbia is fighting for the protection and implementation of the Brussels Agreement.

When asked if the West will be able to put pressure on Pristina, Dacic replied that he does not know if they can put pressure on Pristina, but that no one in Serbia believes that they cannot.

"If the USA and the EU cannot come to an end with Kurti, then it is either their impotence, or their tacit consent," said Dacic. He told the European Union that it is also their obligation to form the CSM.

"I say to the EU that it is also their obligation to form the CSM, not only Kurti's. Catherine Ashton signed it, if it doesn't stand, then you deceived me too," Dacic added.

Commenting on the withdrawal of Serbs from Kosovo's institutions, Dacic said that it is a historic decision and that he supports it.

"We should not justify to anyone whether it was made in agreement with Belgrade or not. The whole world can make decisions about Kosovo and Metohija, but Belgrade cannot. This is the decision of the Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija," said the head of Serbian diplomacy.

Dacic added that Pristina thinks that they have anesthetized the Serbs and that they are on the verge to accept Kosovo's independence. Speaking about the removal of the policemen's uniforms in the north of Kosovo and Metohija, he says that in the institutions in the north of Kosovo and Metohija no one has ever been from Pristina and that the agreement is that they should be Serbs.

"We would like this situation to last as short as possible. We will do everything to preserve the peace, to protest peacefully, this is a kind of resistance due to Pristina's refusal to form the CSM", explained Dacic. He emphasized that it is necessary to respect Resolution 1244.

"There is no more guarantees, either they will act in accordance with Resolution 1244 or they will say openly that they are on the side of Pristina. These are the times when they will have to say it clearly. The historical pendulum is turning. All forms of resistance that the Albanians showed to the Serbian government, now the Serbs show towards the Albanian authorities", noted Dacic.

He asked Pristina why they need Serbs in the institutions if they did not want to cooperate with them. "In order for the Serbs to return to the institutions, we know what Pristina and the EU need to do," said Dacic.

Commenting on the possibility of Pristina applying for EU membership, he said that they can apply for EU membership. "They want to force the EU to vote for them. It is a move that has no chance of succeeding because five EU countries do not recognize Kosovo's independence," Dacic said.

He added that he is taking the subject seriously, so he has scheduled several meetings to discuss this matter.
