We respect the position of Serbia and that solution, which it considers best for us, we will support, said Russian Ambassador to Belgrade Alexander Chepurin.

The Ambassador of the Russian Federation in Belgrade, Alexander Chepurin, said that Russia would accept the partition of Kosovo if Serbia considered it the best solution for it.He told the Belgrade daily Alo commenting on the statement of the head of Serbian diplomacy, Ivica Dacic, that "the Albanians would agree to the division of Kosovo, and that it is in their interests".

"We respect the position of Serbia and the solution that it considers best for us, we will support," Chepurin said. "A valid solution should come in a long process of dialogue and I see nothing that would have to crush and quickly resolve through our knees."

'Relations with Serbia remain firm'

According to him, Russia will support any decision of Serbia. "There is still a slogan:" What is good for Serbia is good for Russia. " For Moscow, it is only important that this solution that is offered is in the interest of Serbia. I have no doubt that the Serbian Government, President [Aleksandar] Vucic and Minister Dacic will do what is best for the country, "the Russian ambassador said.

Chepurin claims that, despite the internal changes taking place in Russia, Serbia will continue to have a good partner in the Kremlin. "Russia is changing in the internal sphere, but relations with Serbia remain solid. I expect that the cooperation between the two countries will be much better and stronger," he said. Asked how he commented on statements from Brussels officials that "Serbia would have to turn its back on Russia once," he replied: "It will never come to that."
