BELGRADE, September 16 – RIA Novosti. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he does not expect Serbia to become a venue for trilateral negotiations on Ukraine.
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that Russia is ready for both bilateral and trilateral negotiations to resolve the conflict, noting that all negotiation processes on Ukraine were interrupted not on Russia’s initiative.
“Thank you to Minister Lavrov for speaking well about Belgrade, but we didn’t talk about it, and it doesn’t exist as an idea. Regarding technical conditions, we are always a good host, but I don’t think that this choice will fall on us. As far as I heard, one Arab country will be the choice for their dialogue,” Vucic told reporters on Wednesday in response to a question about whether Serbia could become the venue for negotiations.
