"There is no doubt. The very title of the decision "Medieval Monuments in Kosovo, Serbia" proves that the monuments belong to Serbia. It is vital that we have dealt with the issue within the frame of legal procedures and standards. Being an UN organization, UNESKO was bound to abide by Resolution 1244," Tomic told the Tanjug news agency in an interview.

Tomic added that a decision on the continuation of the reconstruction projects concerning the Serbian sacred sites in Kosovo was also rendered.
