Economic and other forms of cooperation with Macedonia and Montenegro will continue, Prime Minister Mirko Cvetkovic said on Saturday. Cvetkovic, DS, said that the government made its moves "from the arsenal of diplomatic measures" when it expelled Montenegrin and Macedonian ambassadors from Serbia over the weekend. "Cooperation continues with Skopje, Podgorica" "These measures do not represent any form of repression and are not aimed against the citizens of those countries," he added. Cvetkovic told reporters in Belgrade that he did not speak with his Montenegrin counterpart since Podgorica announced it would recognize Kosovo Albanians' unilateral declaration of independence, but that Milo Djukanovic "earlier explained that the recognition was in the interest of Montenegro's citizens". His first deputy in the cabinet and Interior Minister Ivica Dacic, SPS, also spoke about this issue yesterday to say that "Montenegro is the last state in the world that should have recognized Kosovo and Metohija". This act, he continued, will in many ways compromise relations between the two countries. "I don't interpret this as an attack on Serbia, more like an attempt to change their own history, and in a way, this is a blow that they have dealt to themselves," Dacic told Arandjelovac-based RTV Sumadija.
