In the meantime, no official reason has been given in Belgrade, where Prime Minister Ana Brnabic described the situation this morning as "no small matter."
Brnabic told reporters that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would soon issue a statements that is being worked on "jointly."
Entire staff withdrawn
Earlier on Monday, RTS reported that it received confirmation that the entire staff of the Serbian embassy in Skopje has been withdrawn for urgent consultations in Belgrade.
Serbian Ambassador Dusanka Divjak-Tomic and the staff, as stated, arrived last night (Sunday) in Belgrade. A detailed explanation of what is happening will be given during the day today by Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic, said RTS.
In the meantime, Macedonian media are reporting that the Macedonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced it had received a note from the embassy of Serbia in Skopje, informing them that the embassy staff had been asked to travel to Belgrade for consultations.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not familiar with the reasons for this decision and is therefore establishing communication with the MFA of Serbia. In accordance with the relevant provisions of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, the institutions of the Republic of Macedonia are taking measures to protect the security and integrity of the embassy of Serbia in Skopje," a statement said.
The news about the withdrawal of Serbian diplomats was broken last night by Macedonian TV Telma, which referred to sources in the Macedonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
According to the broadcaster, the Serbian embassy, calling on the Geneva Convention, asked the Macedonian authorities to strengthen the security of the embassy.
The reporter of this television said that "all the windows on the embassy were dark" while "nothing is unusual was happening in front of the building, and there was no increased police presence."
Ambassador Divjak-Tomic told Beta that she could not make any comment, and added, in a SMS message sent to the agency's Skopje correspondent, that they should seek more information tomorrow (Monday) from the Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
For example, a Srb born in Macedonia should have the exact same rights as anybody born in that country, but his first loyalty better be to the well being of his country. PERIOD!! Anything other than that, you are a enemy of the state...

Dear, the reason the state exists is for the benefit of the people, not the other way around...

@Alb Amerikan - I would agree with your statement here about "exterminating". The way of our Lord Jesus has nothing to do with pain, violence or killing!!! We all get overemotional about our own, even some of your posts are pretty "crazy". But that's understood.
The key to peace is that everyone born in a country should be a automatic citizen with the exact same rights, whether you're ethnic Alb, Srb or Macedonian...however, everyone should have the right to be proud of their ethnic bloodline and celebrate it...BUT not at the cost of being detrimental to your country. For example, a Srb born in Macedonia should have the exact same rights as anybody born in that country, but his first loyalty better be to the well being of his country. PERIOD!! Anything other than that, you are a enemy of the state...and no, I don't support capital punishment!

These actions are not a reflection of the will of the Macedonian orthodox brothers of the Serbian people but our imposed by the USA and others who illigally installed a bunch of puppets who do not reflect what the Macedonians feel ir trully want. At this point I think Serbia needs to pull its diplomats Vmro needs the Serbian and Russian support and it needs a civil war to clean house and exterminat all people harmful to Macedonian existance and Cohabitation with its Orthodox Neighbors ie Greece Bulgaria Serbia and its Russian Orthodox brothers III In the name of the father the son and the holy spirit amin!!!

@ Makedonija - Srbs DO NOT hate you! Zaev, however, is another story! Poor guy sold out his soul to the Albanian cause and the West and now he has to pay the piper! And by paying, the Macedonians will be footing the bill...Unfortunatley, there will probably be a civil war at some point, the Macedonian will realize the that he's been had!
Same thing with Trump - He mada a lot of deals with the devil and promises, but now finds it difficult to keep them...He's still trying to "drain the swamp"....hehehe...and I voted for him;)

My country is doing everything in the opposite direction supporting kosovo instead of Serbia is a bad move. I don't blame Serbia for hating us
(Makedonija, 21 August 2017 14:28)
We don't hate you, we dislike your present government and those countries that evilly meddle in weaker countries' affairs. Their self-serving-evil-meddling has caused ALL the present day wars on our planet, where millions of innocent people have perished and millions needlessly suffer and starve.
The Universe is very very angry with them and it shows every time I turn on the news.

Hating Makedonija would be like kicking a cancer patient down the stairs in some hospital. Come on bro.

This is pointless, you have a better chance of getting Montenegro or Bosnia back than you do Kosovo. Give it up and focus on the high poverty and unemployment levels in Serbia and the fact that your population has been seeing a steady decline for decades now.
(Guest, 21 August 2017 12:56)
We will never give it up. Talking about population statistics its interesting to know that officially Kosovo has 1.88 million on the books, but 500,000 live and work in the EU and will never return so that makes it only 1.3 million, but I think its even less than that. Give it a couple of years and they will admit its only just above the 900,000.
Tito is dead and he will not subsidies Albanians having a dozen kids. This is 2017.
Actually, unemployment is falling in Serbia as industry is opening up, but what industry has your beloved US brought to Kosova?

Macadonia people two faced, fast to put a knief in Serbians back !
Serbian government make big mistake to support Macadonia ! Our true good friends are the Greek people who the Serbian government betray for the sake of two faced Macadonia !
Macadonia loves Albanian Islamic terroist so let it be and stay like that, we Serbian people don't really care ! Greece and Srbija can continue as always to be friends and Macadonia can be friends with Albania, that is OK with me !!!
