Kostunica said he would finish every task he had begun regardless of
the decision. He added the timing of the elections was wrong.
Kostunica welcomed a decision by the Yugoslav Constitutional
Court, which today dismissed as illegal the Serbian parliament's
decisions stripping MPs of Kostunica's Democratic Party of Serbia
(DSS) of their mandates.
Representatives of the DOS ruling coalition criticised the
Constitutional Court's decision, saying the Court was not
competent for the case. They announced they would decide about
ousting the DSS from the coalition at a meeting tonight.
The DSS has not been participating in the work of the DOS Presidency
for several months, nor in the work of the Serbian parliament since
their MPs were stripped of their mandates in June.
