"Top Channel":Tadic's difficult visit

The Decan Monastery hosted the annual guest, the Serbian President Boris Tadic, while his arrival was followed by harsh protests and clashes with the EULEX.

Although the Serbian President’s visit was announced as with a religious character, Tadic gave political messages and declared that Serbia will never recognize Kosovo, violating this way the conditions through which he was allowed to enter the country.

“Nothing else can be said in this place, because this Monastery is a holy place not only for the people that visit Kosovo, our country, but this is also our common European space. From Kosovo and Metiohija, I wish merry Christmas to everyone, without ethnic distinctions. From this holy place I wish only peace”, Tadic declared.

The Serbian President also gave a political declaration, even threatening, by declaring for the Serbian media that he will never remove the Serbian parallel institutions in Kosovo.

According to him, many powerful states, members of the UN Security Council, are pressuring Serbia to remove these institutions from Kosovo, but this will not happen.

Together with the Serbian delegation, in this ceremony were present the KFOR commander, Erhard Drews, the head of EULEX, Xavier Bout de Marnhac, the EU representative in Kosovo, Ferdinando Gentilini, and other representatives of the diplomatic body, among them the US Ambassador, Christopher Dell.
