“Today's judgment by the more than 60 year-old International Court of Justice that presides in The Hague, is very important for the Republic of Serbia and its citizens, because it establishes that Serbia did not commit genocide in Bosnia and Hercegovina.”

“I hope that no one is going to offer some kind of trade of [Serbia's] future status in the European Union for (recognising) Kosovo's independence. That would be a disaster, that would be an indecent proposal and … this is not the European spirit and way of thinking.”

“I believe in Serbia that moves forward - towards the European Union. There will be no going back for Serbia, only forwards.”
