President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic says it is extremely important for him to continue European integration, without giving up military neutrality.

"It seems to me that we showed huge progress of our army at the military exercise yesterday (Saturday), both thanks to huge investments, but also dedication," said Vucic.

As he added, because of that, the state will look to enable members of the Army and the health care system to solve the housing issue even easier.

"I believe that our economy will grow even faster. I call on citizens of our country to behave even more responsibly," said Vucic and added that he was especially satisfied because Serbia recognized the danger in time.

Asked about Miroslav Lajcak's statement, Vucic said that Serbia is ready to talk, but not to receive nothing.

"The position of Mr. Lajcak is very unenviable. It's not easy when you receive news from Pristina every day that they will not talk about the dialogue. The essence is that the Albanians are pressuring Serbia to sign the recognition of Kosovo," said Vucic and pointed out that something like that will never happen.

He added that Albanians cannot sign an agreement under the auspices of the EU and then say they will not talk about the Community of Serb Municipalities.

"Albanians expect someone to put pressure on Serbia, and for Serbia to say, no problem. I expect that pressure soon, but not from Lajcak, much bigger players are doing it. Not even 100 million is enough to bring down someone, or millions of pages against me. The people know," said Vucic.
