The draft resolution that Serbia sent to the UN General Assembly is in conflict with the resolution recently adopted by the Serbia parliament. This is according to the opposition DSS, whose spokesman Petar Petkovic spoke in Belgrade late on Wednesday. Parties react to UN GA Kosovo draft DSS also believes that the resolution does not at all challenge the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and that citizens are utterly deceived, because the continued defense of Kosovo should be based on status negotiations, while the government is actually seeking a dialogue on technical issues. The resolution does not request, as specified in the parliament, the continuation of negotiations on the southern Serbian province's status, but is rather generously welcoming a dialogue on open issues, which is another name for the establishment of good neighborly relations, Petkovic said in a statement to the media. DSS deputies voted against the government's resolution in the parliament on Monday. Serbia on Wednesday submitted to the UN General Assembly the resolution which points out that unilateral secession is not an acceptable way for resolving territorial issues and calls for finding solutions through dialogue. Meanwhile, LDP party said that draft sould have been approved by the EU because that would have ensured much greater chances for a positive outcome at the General Assembly. “Had the government opted for that path, it would have sent an unequivocal message of Serbia's clear commitment to European integration,” Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) leader Cedomir Jovanovic said in a written statement. He said that LDP finds it “absolutely unacceptable that the text (of the resolution) does not mention the life of Serbs in Kosovo, which points to the intention of delaying the resolution of this issue for as long as possible". At the Monday session, LDP voted against the government's resolution.
