Selaković received a delegation of ambassadors of the Quint countries and Norway to NATO
Minister Selaković pointed out that, as a militarily neutral country, Serbia wanted to continue to advance its partnership with NATO, since maintaining peace and stability in the region was a common interest.
Selaković briefed the ambassadors on the political and the security situation in the region, noting that Serbia remained a firm and dependable pillar of peace and stability in the Western Balkans.
Serbia's firm commitment to stability in the region and peaceful resolution of all open issues is also confirmed through the Open Balkan initiative, which is helping to overcome political disagreements through economic cooperation among countries in the region, Selaković added.
Devoting particular attention to the situation in Kosovo and Metohija, Selaković reiterated Belgrade's commitment to the EU-facilitated dialogue and to reaching sustainable and compromise solutions.
Selaković warned of the pattern of actions undertaken by Priština, which was making unilateral moves to the detriment of the Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija, thereby destabilising the situation while refusing to meet its commitments under the Brussels Agreement.
The Minister informed the ambassadors of the position of the Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija, as well as of a series of ethnically motivated incidents against Serbs, including last night's attack by ethnic Albanians in the Babin Most village in which two Serbs were wounded.
Emphasising the significance of KFOR's engagement within the mandate entrusted to it under UN SC Resolution 1244, Selaković warned that any future provocation by Priština could cause unforeseeable consequences.
The interlocutors also addressed the current situation in the Western Balkans region as well as the geopolitical consequences of the war in Ukraine.
The meeting was also attended by the USA, UK, French, German, Italian and Norwegian ambassadors to Belgrade, as well as by Norway's special envoy for the Western Balkans.
