Tanjug News Agency May 24, 2010 “Govt. in secret NATO membership talks” KOSOVSKA MITROVICA: Opposition DSS leader Vojislav Kostunica says the current Serbian government is “secretly negotiating with NATO officials”. The subject of these talks, according to Kostunica, who spoke in Kosovska Mitrovica on Sunday, is Serbia's membership in the western military alliance. Kostunica stated that all this came despite a parliamentary resolution passed in 2007, which declared Serbia a militarily neutral country. He said that the last year's NATO Summit supported the Serbian government's commitment to becoming a NATO member state, adding that the NATO secretary-general had recently stated that “he would do his best in order for Serbia to join NATO, talking the approach of one step at a time, as the Serbian side requested”. Kostunica also urged the government to call early parliamentary elections in the country, expressing doubt that it can govern efficiently with a majority of 126 MPs. Apart from Kostunica, other DSS party members also spoke at the panel discussion in the northern Kosovo town, which came ahead of early local elections, scheduled for next week in the municipalities of Kosovska Mitrovica and Novo Brdo. Before the gathering in Kosovska Mitrovica, a session of the DSS main board was held in the northern town of Zvecan. _______________________________________________ News mailing list [email protected] http://lists.antic.org/mailman/listinfo/news
