Behgjet Pacolli

Kosovo is a historical part of Serbia, as Crimea is a historical part of Russia, she added.

"Venezuela was always been on the side of Serbia in all international organizations. Likewise, Serbia has done for us," El-Andari has told the daily Politika.

Shortly after Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido declared himself the rightful President of the country, instead of incumbent Nicolas Maduro, Albania and Kosovo joined a host of other countries around the world in recognising his claim.

Serbian Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic said this for Belgrade daily Vecernje Novosti.

He thus reacted to the assertion of Kosovo Foreign Minister Behgjet Pacolli that he had "knowledge" of Belgrade "promising financial support and arms" to some smaller countries in return for revoking their recognition of Kosovo.

"What I learned is that some of the smaller and poorer countries have fallen for such promises," said Behgjet Pacolli, according to Pristina-based daily Bota Sot.

A rights group in Kosovo, the Council for the Defence of Human Rights and Freedoms, CDHRF, on Friday demanded the dismissal of Kosovo's deputy prime and foreign minister, Behgjet Pacolli, for using "sexist and racist" language in a report to parliament on the country's failure to join Interpol.

As the general assembly of the international criminal police organization, Interpol, prepares to vote on Kosovo's membership in Dubai, politicians from both Kosovo and Serbia are hoping their conflicting plans will be confirmed.

Kosovo Foreign Minister Behgjet Pacolli jetted on Sunday to Dubai in a final push to convince member states to support Kosovo's bid.

Jetlir Zuberaj, the head of the Kosovo foreign minister's cabinet, reacted in this way regarding Vucic's statement that during the ceremony of the opening of a new airport in Istanbul, the flag of Kosovo was removed at his request.

In his response to a question posed by Albanian language website koha.net, Zuberaj called Vucic "a criminal slanderer."

According to a press release from the cabinet of the Kosovo president, Thaci told Mitchell that Washington's support to the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue was "crucial (for) the achievement of the final and legally binding agreement."

The meeting between the two heads of state took place on Wednesday morning in the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo.

Chairman of Assembly and Deputy Prime Ministers Behgjet Pacolli, Fatmir Limaj and Dardan Gashi also attended the meeting, writes the Gazeta Express and reports Kossev portal.

Vucic in this way responded to Ugljanin saying Vucic was "not the president of Bosniaks."

Addressing Ugljanin with a nickname, the president said: "There's no armchair for you, Suljo, it's all for nothing."
