Serbian embassy in Libya

Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic has said that he is not avoiding responsibility when it comes to the deaths of two employees of the Serbian embassy in Libya.

Sladjana Stankovic and Jovica Stepic - employees of the Serbian embassy in Libya kidnapped last year - have "probably been killed in a U.S. airstrike."

This was announced on Saturday by Serbia's foreign minister, Ivica Dacic. Speaking later in the day, Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic confirmed that the two Serbians are among the victims.

Serbian Ambassador to Libya Oliver Potezica has denied in a protest letter that he had not sought the closure of the Serbian embassy in Libya.

The Belgrade-based paper Danas writes on Thursday that Potezica addressed his letter to the Serbian president, the prime minister, and the minister of foreign affairs.
