Jeremić's visit to Moscow coincides with the escalation of events in the Kosovo settlement process in the light of a draft resolution on Kosovo recently introduced by the United States and EU member-countries in the UN Security Council. "During the recent times, including bilateral and multilateral contacts the Russian side has repeatedly touched and commented upon this very subject. Naturally, it will be given a priority attention and at the Russian-Serbian negotiations, which will allow discussing various aspects of the current stage of the status process," Mikhail Kamynin underlined. He said, in regard to the Kosovo problem Russia consistently continues to insist on the necessity to strictly keeping fundamental principles of the international law. "After all the matter is about the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Serbia as an internationally recognized state - a UN member-country. We insist on the necessity to continue talks on the status of the region between leaders of Serbia and Albanians of Kosovo under the balanced international mediation, aimed at reaching such an outcome, which would satisfy both sides," the official representative of the Russian MFA said.
