Jeremić and Medelci in Belgrade (Beta) Jeremić underlined that this would represent a "great moral test for the international community". Outgoing Kosovo Albanian Prime Minister Hashim Thaci, whose party on Sunday won the election, was named in the report as one of the ex-KLA responsible for organizing kidnappings of Serb civilians in 1999, and their transport to Albania where their organs were removed. “I see this as a great moral test for the international community. What we have here are grave accusations and they have to be thoroughly investigated and examined, and this issue must not be swept under the rug,” Jeremić said after his meeting with Algerian Foreign Minister Mourad Medelci. Jeremić expressed his satisfaction over the fact that the Committee for Human Rights and Legal Affairs of the Council of Europe Parliamentary Assembly adopted in Paris on Thursday Rapporteur Marty's draft report on Kosovo, and voiced his belief that the Assembly will approve the document at its plenum session scheduled for January next year. Medelci congratulated the Serbian authorities for the wisdom they had shown in dealing with the Kosovo issue and for their opting for dialogue, which he hopes will yield a solution that Serbia will find as suitable. Medelci also said that his country, which has not recognized Kosovo's unilaterally declared independence, had always defended, at all meetings with different international partners, the stand of Serbia. The position of Algeria is that the (UN) Security Council is the only body that can resolve that issue (Kosovo), and that as long as the issue is not resolved in such a manner, Algeria will not be in a position to establish official relations with Kosovo, Medelci said. Medelci and Jeremić also discussed the forthcoming conference of Non-Aligned Movement, which will be held in Belgrade in September, on the 50th anniversary of the organization's first summit staged in the Serbian capital in 1961. The two foreign ministers also spoke about Serbian President Boris Tadić's visit to Algeria next year, when a great number of inter-state agreements are expected to be signed. |
