Russia to support Serbia in talks on Kosovo status
MOSCOW. March 24 (Interfax) - Russia will support Serbia in talks on the status of Kosovo, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
"We are convinced that any decision [on Kosovo's future] should be negotiated and not forced. However, unfortunately, Serbia is not playing a particularly active role in these talks," Lavrov said at a State Duma session devoted to the European Council's convention on the prevention of terrorism on Friday.
Serbia's stance "could have been firmer and were it to become so we would support it," he said.
