Serbian President Boris Tadic's foreign affairs advisor, Vuk Jeremic, said in an interview for the Belgrade-based Vecernje Novosti that the Serbian team would propose a great number of amendments to Ahtisaari's plan for the final status of the breakaway province of Kosovo, and that Belgrade would not accept any sort of compromise when it comes to the protection of Serbia's national interests in that area.
"We have clear positions and strong backing from the parliament. I would rather not enter into speculation about how much it would be possible to change the blueprint, as this is up to Ahtisaari," Jeremic said in the interview published on Saturday.
Jeremic dismissed accusations that a resolution which the new Serbian parliament adopted on Kosovo earlier this week was intended only for the public in Serbia and in this context recalled that some international factors said that for them it would be unacceptable to have any proposal that is unacceptable for any party in concern.
If Ahtisaari says that he does not expect compromise, this will not discourage us to be constructive in negotiations he is chairing. After the process (of negotiations), the proposal is sent to the UN Security Council ... Some members, including China, Russia, Slovakia are strongly in favour of seeking compromise, Jeremic said adding that it is possible that the Security Council would continue seeking a solution acceptable to both sides.
