Serbia's “task is to prevent Serbs from having security problems and to be threatened in any way. This is one of the conclusions of the Bureau's collection for co-ordinating security services”, media quoted Stefanovic as saying.

He has spoken of the possibility that Pristina on November 28th, on Albanian Flag Day, will proclaim the Kosovo Army.

“They are engaging in that date to be the date of the declaration (the Army) even if it is in conflict with the Constitution, even the provisions that Pristina itself has approved, contrary to international agreements, Resolution 1244 and NATO guarantees. For that, there is no support from Serbs”, he was quoted as saying, broadcast Koha.net.

According to him, such a decision causes great concern among Serbs. Our Ministry of Defense, Internal Affairs and all services have analysed all the information we have about this and prepared several scenarios that could happen and understand Serbia's answers, but above all, we want to talk seriously with partners who have been guarantors of NATO and the EU that something like this dares not happen” has been threatened Stefanovic.

He has said it is a serious matter and that he expects answers from them in the first place. “A are willing that illegally, breaking even Kosovo's internal laws, are they willing to accept such a thing at the price of causing instability in the region and risking all that they themselves have promised or will take something concrete “>, the newspaper quoted Serbia's Interior Minister Nebojsa Stefanovic as broadcasting Kohanet.
