"Our ambassador in Nigeria was received an hour ago by the Nigerian authorities, when it was confirmed for him that Nigeria had not changed its stance, and that it did not recognize the unilaterally declared independence of Kosovo," said the Serbian minister. Jeremic went on to state that Pacolli proved to be "a fairly unreliable source of information". "This was evident in the past, and the question of his credibility was resolved when he was dismissed - by the American envoy in the territory of our southern province - from the post of the so-called president of Kosovo," concluded the minister.
