"We in the Council of Ministers have not yet talked about that
proposal, and I expect that we shall make a decision on the matter in
the next few weeks," Minister Goran Svilanovic was quoted by the
Vecernje Novosti daily as saying.
According to Svilanovic, Washington is not exerting pressure on
Serbia-Montenegro to give the positive answer as soon as possible,
but it only wants to know "when we shall mull over it", he said.
