Tusk: For Serbia not located in Moscow, nor in Brussels

After meeting with Serbian chief of state Aleksandar Vuciq, Tusk indicated that Serbs would not allow themselves to decide on their future.

The European Union is and will be Serbia's most reliable partner and the entire Western Balkans”, he said, adding that preparations for the upcoming summit in Sofia in May are the main reason for his visit.

At the summit in Sofia, we will confirm the readiness to work on the region's European perspective,” said Tusk.

He added that one of the topics discussed was dialogue with Pristina.

I know this is a difficult issue, but a strategic solution that will eventually be repaid. In the EU we have built a community so that no one can pay their independence with their blood, so we should see the EU as a project with a strategic dimension. Together we can achieve almost everything that prosperity, the highest level of life, democracy, security and, above all, mutual respect and preservation of national identity”, the top European official said.
