"Passing of special court legislation is only first step"

Dialogue with Pristina in Brussels will continue tomorrow, he said, when disagreements over the insurance agreement should be resolved.

Djuric told Serbia's state broadcaster RTS that Belgrade will in the coming period "carefully monitor the composition and work" of the court, that should prosecute former KLA members who committed war crimes.

"We cannot be satisfied until those who have committed crimes have been punished," he underlined.

Djuric also noted that those who on Monday vote in the Kosovo assembly had not been prepared to punish war crimes for 15 years, and recalled that "much of the work to prosecute KLA criminals is still ahead."

Djuric stressed that he does not trust former KLA leaders, "who took off their uniforms and put on suits in the Kosovo assembly."

He noted it was "a good thing" that court will be international and will prosecute war crimes, "for which there is no statute of limitation."

Commenting on "pressures on the Serb side" Djuric said that much of the political life in the province resembles a farce - "and not only do Serb leaders have no peace, but there is also no peace for witnesses."

"Those who voted yesterday in the Kosovo assembly are winking toward those who should be convicted and saying, 'everything will be alright'. We view the intentions of Pristina with a certain amount of skepticism and we remain ready to help those who want to condemn war crimes," underlines the Kosovo Office director.

Speaking about the talks that will continue on Wednesday in Brussels, Djuric recalled that Pristina tried to take advantage of the previous agreement on insurance and "slip through it" license plates with Kosovo markings.

Djuric said that disagreements regarding the insurance agreement are slowing down the dialogue in Brussels, adding that Pristina "has an interest in the continuation of such a situation."

Nevertheless, Djuric expects the problem concerning insurance to be resolved "in the next two to three days."
