"Ukraine is under huge pressure from certain countries to recognize the Kosovo Albanians' unilateral declaration of the independence", Serbia's vice-Prime minister Bozidar Djelic said.
Djelic said his Ukrainian counterpart conveyed that "what has been done to Serbia is a huge injustice, which cannot bring stability in the region."
"I think that we can count on Ukraine in the fight for the territorial integrity," Djelic said, and noted that the final decision on the matter will be made by that country's president.
