Serbian Minister Calls For Closer Ties With Bosnia

(RFE/RL) May 28, 2007 -- Serbian Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremic says that a further improvement in the country's relations with Bosnia-Herzegovina is a priority for the new Serbian government.

Jeremic, on a visit to Sarajevo, met with his counterpart, Sven Alkalaj.


The two ministers said cooperation should further intensify, and that both Serbia and Bosnia should do more to move toward Euro-Atlantic integration.


Jeremic again rejected independence for the province of Kosovo, saying it would be unacceptable to Serbia. He said Serbia believes a compromise should be reached on the issue.
