Austria To Show Restraint Over Serbian Province
Austria to Show Restraint on Kosovo
Tanjug reports that Austrian Social Democratic Party (SPO) whip Josef Cap has criticized the policy of state’s Foreign Minister Ursula Plassnik on Serbian Kosovo-Metohija province and said that setting a deadline for completing the negotiations on the future status of Serbia’s southern province is counterproductive.
Austrian ruling SPO is convinced that a decision on Kosovo province status must be taken by the UN Security Council and that Russia and Serbia must be involved in the process of seeking a solution, Cap told the Vienna Standard.
According to the politicians of the ruling Austrian party, Austria should show restraint regarding the Serbian province, especially given its history in the Balkans.
