UN must resolve Kosovo fate - Serbia's Kostunica

BRUSSELS, Sep 12 (Reuters) The United Nations Security Council is the only place where the future status of the breakaway Serbian province of Kosovo can be resolved, Serb Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica today said.

''We do think that the United Nations and the Security Council are the sole institutions in which the problem of the future status of Kosovo should be dealt with,'' he said after talks in Brussels with EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana.

''Everything else is a sort of violation of international law,'' he said, referring in particular to any solution which would lead to Kosovo declaring independence unilaterally.
