Kosovo problem can't be settled without Russia's support - Serbian FM

SOCHI. Aug 21 (Interfax) - Russia's involvement in efforts to settle the problem of Kosovo is essential, Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic said.

"We want this, and we will maintain close dialogue and contact with Russia, President Putin, and [Foreign] Minister Lavrov, as we believe that without Russia's support, no durable solution to this issue can be achieved," Dacic said at a press conference following talks with Lavrov on Tuesday.
