AFPPIX: Serbia has been given an ultimatum from powerful Western nations to normalise ties with Kosovo or face measures that would do “great damage” to the country, the president said Monday.
Speaking during a televised press conference, Vucic said Serbia's parliament would have to discuss the proposal, and hinted at a possible referendum. Serbia has been a candidate to join the European union for over a decade, and normalising ties with Kosovo has been a key condition to advance its application.
Belgrade and its key allies Russia and China refused to recognise the move, effectively denying Pristina a seat at the United Nations.
