Vucic: We will request urgent UNSC session over situation in Kosovo-Metohija

NEW YORK  - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced on Wednesday Belgrade would request that an urgent UN Security Council session be called over the situation in Kosovo-Metohija.

"We are working on that. We are assessing all possibilities and we will definitely request a session. We will see what the date of the session on the report on UNMIK is and we will make a request at some other time," Vucic told reporters in New York, where he is attending a UN General Assembly session.

He said a refusal to hold an urgent UNSC session would be "some kind of a signal."

"We have had enough of both sides being blamed because it is clear who is to blame here. It is also clear to those who support such behaviour by (Pristina's PM Albin) Kurti. They can no longer hide behind that by saying the Serbs are equally to blame," Vucic said.

He said he had discussed a request for an urgent UNSC session with Defence Minister Milos Vucevic and Serbian Armed Forces Chief of General Staff Gen Milan Mojsilovic and that a final decision on this was due after more discussions next weekend.
