(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAY 24 - Belgrade has prepared a package of measures in response to Kosovo's imposition of 100% higher tariffs on goods imported from Serbia and Bosnia. ''These measures will be enforced only after the meeting on Kosovo scheduled for early July in Paris and organized by French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel'', Serbia's president Aleksandar Vucic said today. At the end of a meeting in Belgrade with the political, social and institutional representatives of Kosovo Serbs, the president specified that these measures are designed to not hit the Serbs, but that he described them as ''very strong''. At the same time, Vucic reiterated that a campaign of arrests and intimidation against the Serbian population is being prepared in Kosovo. ''I ask the international community to stop this from happening'', said the president. He then reiterated that Serbia considers the abolition of tariffs as a necessary condition of a resumption of negotiations with Kosovo. Today's meeting with 140 representatives of Kosovo Serbs took place after the election of the majors of four Serb-majority Municipalities in northern Kosovo. The Srpska Lista (SL), the party linked to the government of Serbia and to president Vucic, recorded an overwhelming success.
