Speaking about the tension at the administrative crossings of Jarinje and
Brnjak, Dacic said that the real question is whether the European Union
thinks that the Brussels Agreement from 2013 is in effect or not. He adds
that all this seems to him like a test of Pristina to see how everyone will
react to the "brutal violation of all the arrangements of the Brussels
Agreement." 

"They want to see how they will react to the use of force and whether it
will pass. I am sure that there are many more possible actions and incidents
in their heads that they can do. President Aleksandar Vučić was clear - the
obligation of KFOR, NATO, which is the backbone of KFOR, is to guarantee
security in accordance with Resolution 1244. We publicly warn them that
Serbia will not allow the ethnic cleansing of Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija
to be repeated, as Croatia has done in the Republika Srpska Krajina. This is
provoking, not regional, but new world crises", said Dačić for TV Tanjug. 

He also said that the problem of license plates should have been solved in
dialogue, and not by using force. 

"The central issue here, and I think that Pristina will not give up such
actions on its own, will the international community deal with this issue or
turn its head, and someone encourage it to take such actions? To be clear: I
am against interrupting any dialogue. Serbia must not do that, but Serbia
must ask the EU to say whether it supports the Brussels agreement," Dacic
said. 

He says that it is incomprehensible to him that so many years after the
signing of the Brussels Agreement, only Serbia respects the agreement. 

"It is incomprehensible that only Serbia was a constructive factor, and that
the other side refused to apply the formation of the Community of Serbian
Municipalities. The EU neither hears nor announces itself. They call for
world peace. They constantly warn the two sides, I guess you should warn or
sanction the party that violates the Brussels agreement. The EU is the
guarantor of the agreement, but what is their credibility if they cannot
stand behind the agreement?", said Dacic. 

He estimates that the implementation of the Brussels Agreement has been
avoided for a long time. "It is a matter of long-term avoidance of the
implementation of the Brussels Agreement, which they signed. The guarantor
of that agreement was Catherine Ashton. We should remember the decision to
form the Kosovo Army, which is contrary to Resolution 1244. Today, the
Kosovo authorities invaded northern Kosovo and Metohija without any
announcement. It is a direct violation of all agreements, not to mention
taxes, which have caused great damage. The real question is whether the EU
thinks that the Brussels agreement is in effect or not," said Dacic. 

He also stated that if the Brussels agreement is valid, then it is
unacceptable that every statement from Brussels contains a general wording
where "both sides are called to calm the tensions." 

"That refusal to say who is violating the Brussels agreement leads to
Pristina not even implementing it. They often underestimated the role of the
United Nations in Pristina. They constantly wanted to express their
so-called statehood by giving their license plates, threatening that Serbian
personal documents would not be valid, and the like", President of the
Serbian Assembly noted.
