- I will repeat what I said in Minsk at the meeting with Minister Ravkov that the political relations between Serbia and Belarus are exceptional. We appreciate the support of the Belarus reflected in the principled policy of supporting Serbia’s efforts to resolve all open issues in the south Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija in a peaceful manner using political means, while concurrently we are trying to preserve and defend the sovereignty and integrity of our fatherland – Minister Vulin pointed out.
