-                   Lately, there has been a topic of a great interest- the presidential elections and the following situation in Iran. Was it raised at the past two meetings?


 


 


-                   There have been two European-presidency announcements concerning Iran so far. A new position of the Union has also been discussed. The common opinion is that the violence- approach used to disperse peaceful demonstrations is not acceptable. On the other hand, it is believed that an adequate response is in order concerning the demands about honesty and credibility of the elections and the results. Overall, there is a consideration in relation to the political processes taking place in Iran. The European Union will propose a pack of measures showing respect to the Iranian independence and sovereignty but at the same time expressing its consideration about observing the universal human values.


 


-                   Short before you arrived at Corfu, you and your Serbian colleague, Vuk Jeremic, had a talk about setting free the former Kosovan Prime Minister Agim Ceku, who was arrested in Bulgaria following a demand from the Serbian state. Did you manage now to clear your disagreements?


 


 


-                   The disagreement stem mainly from the fact that we look on this case as a legal one. Bulgarian court’s decision is very well reasoned through number of international agreements. Serbia looks on the case as a political one. This is not a political issue and should not be involved in the relationships between the two countries. Bulgarian court has observed the law.
