Samardžić pointed out that by mid-October EULEX would replace UNMIK in a silent manner, since there are no legal grounds for this change, and that the Serbian government is losing pace and does not do what it can to strengthen its policy and institutions in the province.
Following the state's initiative to request the opinion from the International Court of Justice, ICJ, on the legality of Kosovo's declared secession, Samardžić said that the move was risky, but that it had his party's support, and noted that "much energy is being invested in it".
He however repeated that the DSS preferred direct lawsuits against those countries that recognized the Kosovo Albanians' unilateral proclamation.
Speaking about the draft Vojvodina statute, which was published in Novi Sad daily Dnevnik, Samardžić assessed that in this way the public in Serbia, which has a difficult state problem with Kosovo, is being "unnecessarily provoked".
