He said that Russia was surprised with the version of the resolution that Serbia had submitted to the UN General Assembly earlier this month.
"It was a big surprise for us that instead of its own Serbia submitted the other version of the draft resolution. I understand that the Serbian side is forming its position in accordance with the resolution and that is why we need to elaborate our position as best we can," the ambassador pointed out.
Konzin repeated that this did not mean that Russia was changing its position on Kosovo.
"You decide, and we will support the way you determine the fate of Kosovo, it's your decision and we cannot interfere with it," Konuzin concluded.
