Vulin: If Pristina becomes member of Council of Europe, Serbia should declare political neutrality

"The very announcement that Pristina will apply for Council of Europe membership is a violation of the Washington Agreement"

"What the EU member states really think about Serbia will be demonstrated by their vote on Pristina's request for membership in the Council of Europe," Serbian Minister of Internal Affairs and leader of the Movement of Socialists, Aleksandar Vulin, said today.

"We don't have to wait another 20 years to learn whether the EU wants Serbia in its ranks, it will be enough for them to vote in favor, or against the admission of a territory to an organization made up of states. So far, we've learned that the signature of the European Union is worth as much as the Brussels Agreement, but now is the opportunity to see how much the word of the United States is worth," Vulin added, commenting on Pristina's request to become a member of the Council of Europe.

He added that the very announcement that Pristina will submit a request for membership in the Council of Europe is a violation of the Washington Agreement.

"Either Pristina will be punished and stopped, or it will come out that any kind of lie is allowed against Serbia and that there are no rights or justice for the Serbs. If Pristina becomes a member of the Council of Europe, Serbia should declare political neutrality, just as it has declared military neutrality. If we can't choose our enemies, let's at least be able to choose our friends," said Vulin.
