"Anyone who thinks that Serbia, in case it had to choose between the European Union and Kosovo, would choose the EU, is making a mistake. It will not happen," Jeremic told a news conference after a meeting with his Hungarian counterpart Peter Balazs, Hungarian MTI news agency has reported.
Balazs pointed out that there is no need to impose such an impossible choice on Serbia, and added that Belgrade has done a lot on its European pathway.
He said that Budapest relies on Serbia in efforts for the stabilization of the Western Balkans which is the priority of Hungary's foreign policy, MTI quoted.
Hungary thinks that its strategic mission is to help the stabilization of the entire Western Balkans, and this cannot be done without Serbia, the Hungarian foreign minister stressed.
He underscored that Serbia plays a key role in the region, and added that he is always ready to help neighboring countries to resolve their problems.
