"As far as I have been informed, an investigation is ongoing about this event, and its results will be awaited in order to determine the cause of the fire," he said, adding:

"Our community will insist that the full truth is established. Beside the insurance money, we will ask New York City through diplomatic channels to help rebuild, or build a new church."

Dacic added that head of the Serbian caretaker government Aleksandar Vucic authorized him to say that the government will help rebuild the church, "because it has great significance for the Serbian community and the Serbian spirit in New York."

"In a year or two there should be a Serbian church here... we'll do our best," Dacic stressed.
