Serbian Interior Minister Nebojsa Stefanovic said Saturday that the behavior of the Hague Tribunal was irresponsible and the requirement to ensure SRS leader Vojislav Seselj’s attendance at the sentencing hearing was a hidden attempt at weakening the position of Serbia and destabilizing its government.

Speaking on a Belgrade-based TV Pink’s talk show, Stefanovic said that day after day, the tribunal was trying to make Serbia’s position more difficult, and it was not about an individual or a particular judgment, but rather an attempt at destabilizing the government.

“They they want to create a weaker government … a weaker Serbia, which would not have such a good negotiating position in the dialogue with Pristina and one that will not be able to pursue an independent policy.”

Commenting on yesterday’s statement by the Hague Tribunal that Zdravko Tolimir died of natural causes, the minister said that nobody doubted that, but the real question was why it had to happen in the first place, as Serbia had asked for him to be released to get medical treatment four months before.
