Serbian official says that EU is aware that Serbia will not recognize Kosovo

Borislav Stefanović says “a great majority of EU governments” are aware that Serbia cannot and will not recognize the so-called independence of Kosovo.

He was commenting on a statement made by German Ambassador in Priština Hans-Dieter Steinbach that his country supports EU accession of Kosovo and Serbia “as two separate states” and that the question of Kosovo’s recognition would be put to Belgrade in the moment of Serbia’s EU accession.

“Just like a great majority of governments in the EU, the German government is highly aware that Serbia cannot and will not recognize Kosovo’s independence,” Stefanović said recently.
