BELGRADE - Serbian Defence Minister Milos Vucevic said on Monday Serbia must stay at the negotiating table in the process of resolving the Kosovo-Metohija issue as leaving the talks would play into the hands of Pristina's PM Albin Kurti and those who wished no good to Serbia.

"They would say 'here they are again, they are doing it like they were doing it in the nineties, and they will now be isolated and punished,'" Vucevic said on Prva TV, noting that Serbia was now the more constructive partner in the talks.

He said he did not expect Kurti to form a Community of Serb Municipalities as required by the Brussels Agreement.

Even if he does form one, it will be only for the sake of form, Vucevic said.

"Certain Western European countries are pressuring him to establish a Community of Serb Municipalities, but protests I have seen take place in Pristina were against the establishment of the Community. I am under no impression that he will do it, and I am afraid he will do it only for the sake of form and that it will be a disguise, a shell without substance, and that our situation will be made more difficult that way," Vucevic also said.
