Vucic: I expect a call to Brussels in the coming days, the issue of the dinar is a big problem

President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, stated today from Munich, after meetings with representatives of the European Union, Josep Borrell, and Miroslav Lajcak, that he expected a call to Brussels in the coming days to find a solution regarding the ban on the dinar. However, he also added that it seemed to him that the EU did not want to apply mechanisms towards Pristina.

"It seems to me that the EU either does not have or does not want to apply mechanisms towards Pristina, which not only implements unilateral measures but also seeks to ethnically cleanse Kosovo of the Serbs in every possible way," Vucic told reporters in Munich.

He said he could see this through the responses of Borrell and Lajcak during the meetings.

"We have said that we are ready to attend any talks, but we want the results not to be expected only from Belgrade, while from Pristina, we never get anything," Vucic said.

He particularly emphasized that they had discussed the issue of the dinar, which posed an increasing problem for Serbia. He highlighted that Albin Kurti had resorted to a deceitful lie about a three-month transition period.

"That period refers to the fact that when they catch anyone in Kosovo with dinars, they won't seize them. But how will the Serbs get dinars - there's no solution because money transfers are being halted. And for the Serbs in institutions, not to mention... There's no solution for that either," President Vucic pointed out.

Therefore, he expects a call to Brussels in the coming days.

"And I hope for some solution," Vucic said, adding that he couldn't say anything bad about Borrell, who was a fair man and understood what was happening, but that this "is of little use for the Serbs".

Vucic emphasized that Borrell and Lajcak understood the situation and problems in Kosovo.

"They are not blind; they know all about it. You need the support of member states to take action. Whether that really exists or not, it's better not to comment," Vucic said.

He did not want to comment again on Rama's statement that he would stand by Kosovo in case of a conflict with Serbia, emphasizing that he had already expressed his opinion on the matter.

When asked if there were any new pressures on Serbia regarding the situation in Kosovo and the non-imposition of sanctions on Russia, the President of Serbia said there had been no pressures regarding Kosovo.

"As for Russia, you always hear about it everywhere, at every step; I heard it at two meetings today; it's a key issue. To be completely honest, we are too small to be a substantial factor," Vucic said, emphasizing that Serbia did not hide that it had a different stance on Russia than the majority.

He also commented on the death of Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny, highlighting that it further complicated the situation and that anyone's death was a great tragedy, but the investigation would reveal the cause of death.
