Ivica

Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic, who is currently visiting Canada, has repeated that Serbia wants to "move toward the EU."

However, he has warned that there were "many problems" on that road.

Nebojsa Stefanovic, Serbia's Interior Minister, on Saturday said police had found several hand grenades, bazooka and large quantities of ammunition for machine-guns and snipers, hidden in the woods near Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic's family home, close to Belgrade.

Ivica Dacic on Friday denied claims that "someone in the West" was seeking a change in the format of the Brussels dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina.

The Serbian foreign minister and first deputy prime minister also "reiterated that Belgrade was expecting it to resume but that it would not consent to topics outside the framework of status neutrality," Tanjug has reported.

Ivica Dacic on Thursday ceremonially awarded diplomatic passports to Serbian Olympic medalists in individual events at the London and Rio Games.

The foreign minister thus made them goodwill ambassadors, Tanjug reported.

Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic says Serbia has nothing to do with the case of the arrest of Serbian citizens in Montenegro.

Among those arrested was the former commander of the Gendarmerie Bratislav Dikic.

The Serbian government decided on Sunday to propose to China a mutual scrapping of visas.

At a government session held in Nis late Sunday, Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic and Chinese Ambassador Li Manchang agreed it was a historic day for Serbia and China.

Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dačić announced that his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov is scheduled to visit Serbia mid-December.

“To be clear, this visit was never even scheduled, but instead it was only unofficially announced,” Dačić tells Novosti.

Croatian Minister of Foreign Affairs Miro Kovač assessed that the statement Ivica Dačić gave on Pope Francis’s denouncement was taken out of context.

As he says, Serbian Minister of Foreign Affairs interpreted Pope’s statement in an “unacceptable and inappropriate way”.

CUPRIJA - Only responsible and serious policies in the region can bring better life to all citizens, Serbian PM Aleksandar Vucic reiterated in Cuprija, central Serbia, on Friday.

Ivica Dacic said on Tuesday in New York that our country does not have the capacity to be "a long-term, mass shelter for migrants."
