Vucic: Although Serbs are not ready, I will not back down

BERN - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic says he wants to take a new path regarding Kosovo and adds that he will not back down although the Serbs are still not ready for it.

"It is easy to say 'go fight for Kosovo'. However, that has always led us to war. I want to take a new path - for Serbia. I want us to have open and fair discussions about a solution for the Kosovo conflict. Although the Serbs are still not ready for it, I will not back down because the debate will have a healing effect for all of us, regardless of whether we achieve a good result or fail," he told the Swiss daily Blick in an interview.
