Serbian president says he is to make important statement on Kosovo in next 3 days
Kosovan premier wants destruction, persecution of ethnic Serbs, claims Aleksandar Vucic

ATHENS (AA) – Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he would make an important statement regarding Kosovo in the next three days, Kosovan media reported on Tuesday.
Vucic had separate two-hour talks with Miroslav Lajcak, the EU envoy for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, and Christopher Hill, the US ambassador to Serbia, according to Koha news.
“... in the next 72 hours we will address the public. We will respond with serious measures in the next 72 hours,” Koha News quoted Vucic as saying.
Blaming the international community for the escalating tension, Vucic said: “We will have many important meetings because we have to fight for Serbia's position in the world, look for allies. We will do everything possible in that matter,” he said.
It is clear that Albanian Prime Minister Albin Kurti wants the destruction and persecution of the Serbian population in Kosovo, he added.
A series of recent steps by the Kosovar government have increased tensions, according to the Serbian government, including making euro the only legal currency in Kosovo, effectively outlawing the use of the Serbian dinar.
Nine branches of the Serbian Post Office, or Posta Srbije, which operates in northern Kosovo, were closed in an operation carried out by the country’s institutions on Aug. 5.
Kosovo declared its unilateral independence from Serbia on Feb. 17, 2008, but Serbia still sees Kosovo as its "own territory."
