Dear Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, members of the delegations

I would point to a few ongoing issues in my speech that refer to the competences of the Mechanism, namely, the possibility of serving the sentences passed by the ICTY and Mechanism in the Republic of Serbia, with the current practice of disabling early release of the sentenced persons as well as obligation of the Mechanism regarding protection of sentenced persons.

In Belgrad wurde heute die neue Dienstleistung des Außenministeriums „E-Konsulat“ vorgestellt, die für ausländische Staatsbürger bestimmt ist, die ein Visum beantragen und in Serbien arbeiten wollen.

A new service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs "e-Consulate" was presented in Belgrade today, intended for foreign citizens who apply for a visa and aspire to come to Serbia to work.

President Vucic said tonight that the visionary idea of Robert Schuman brought a true victory of the new trust after the Second World War and faith in the unification of differences in peace and solidarity, with the message that Serbia has that faith, as well as hope that it will become a country that will be gladly regarded in the European family of nations.
Congratulating everyone in Serbia and the EU on Europe Day, Vucic reminded that 9 May was also the day when the great victory of freedom is celebrated, which was won with huge sacrifices.

Präsident Aleksandar Vučić hat heute Abend gesagt, dass die visionäre Idee von Robert Schuman dem Vertrauen nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zum Sieg verholfen und zum Glauben an die Vereinigung von Verschiedenheiten in Frieden und Solidarität beigetragen habe. Er sagte, dass auch Serbien daran glaube und hoffe, dass es ein gern gesehenes Mitglied der europäischen Völkerfamilie sein werde.
