Dacic: EP resolution extremely hypocritical

BELGRADE - Serbian FM Ivica Dacic said on Wednesday a new European Parliament resolution calling on Belgrade to align with the EU foreign policy was "another example of enormous hypocrisy."

In a statement to Tanjug, Dacic said the EP objected to Serbia's failure to align with the EU foreign policy but made no mention of the fact the so-called Kosovo did not want to implement the Brussels Agreement, signed under EU patronage.

"Are the Brussels Agreement and the Community of Serb Municipalities not a fundamental element of the European foreign policy? Also, there is talk about the territorial integrity of Ukraine, while calls are being made to violate the territorial integrity of Serbia," Dacic noted.

Before lecturing Serbia on failure to align with the EU foreign policy, the EP should align with the fundamental principles of international law regarding protection of the territorial integrity of all states in the world, "unless it thinks Serbia has no right to international law," Dacic said, noting that the resolution was "hypocritical to the very extreme."
