BELGRADE - Serbian Armed Forces Chief of General Staff Gen Milan Mojsilovic met with Kfor Commander Maj Gen Angelo Michele Ristuccia in Belgrade on Wednesday to discuss the security situation in Kosovo-Metohija.

The meeting, held amid an escalation of tensions in the north of the province, addressed efforts to avert further deterioration of the security situation on the ground and ensure a safe and secure environment for the Serb population, subjected to unlawful violence by the interim self-government institutions in Pristina, the Serbian Ministry of Defence said in a statement.

The parties expressed a commitment to preserve peace and stability and noted the significance of contacts at all levels between the Serbian Armed Forces and international forces in Kosovo-Metohija for successful preventive action and for averting the emergence of crises in the territory of Serbia's southern province.

Mojsilovic expressed Serbia's firm stance and expectations that Kfor, as the only legitimate armed formation in Kosovo-Metohija, would perform the mandate invested in it under UNSCR 1244 in a comprehensive, strict and unbiased manner and protect the Serbs and their national, cultural and historical and religious heritage in the province, the statement said.
