Serbian Premier Zoran Zivkovic said that "nobody in Serbia has the
right to give Kosovo up", and that "the dream about the independence
of Kosovo is becoming less and less a dream and more and more a
nightmare for Albanian extremists who are aware that it will remain
a dream that will never come true".
Zivkovic went on to say that nobody in Serbia could ask for re-
deployment of Serbia-Montenegro army and police in Kosovo without
the approval of the international community given that this had
been disastrous in the past.
Most deputies of the ruling coalitions from Serbia and from
Montenegro voted for the resolution, but representatives of the
Social Democratic Party of Montenegro did not attend the session,
with the explanation that Kosovo was an internal issue of Serbia and
not of Montenegro or the state union defined by the Constitutional
Charter.
The resolution passed by the Serbia-Montenegro parliament differs
only slightly from the Kosovo Declaration adopted by the Serbian
assembly last month.
The resolution reads that no discussion should be launched on
Kosovo until all provisions of the UN Security Council's Resolution
1244 are implemented and conditions for a multiethnic society
created.
