Serbian FM: Stop lying that Russians are to blame

"I read it in the newspapers today, and (opposition) LDP deputies said it in the Assembly yesterday, that Serbia did not open the chapters because of Russia. These are shameless lies," Dacic told reporters while in the town of Jagodina.

He said that EU member-states failed to agree in October to open any new chapters in the negotiations with Serbia, while the only reason for this was a lack of progress in the Kosovo talks.

"If there is progress, the chapters will be opened in December, but that has nothing to do with Chapter 31 that concerns foreign policy, and that has not yet been opened," Dacic said.

"Stop lying already. They're trying to say that Russia is to blame because Serbia is not making progress toward the EU," Dacic said, and reiterated that "this is not true."
