Serbian judicial authorities, in accordance with the country's Constitution, European and international charters, decide on the extradition of wanted persons to other countries, said Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić.

He said this in response to a journalist's question about when Svetozar Marović would be extradited to Gora, after the Montenegrin Ministry of Justice requested this from Serbian authorities for the seventh time earlier this week.

On the sidelines of the European Political Community Summit in Tirana, Vučić said that the President of Serbia does not decide on the extradition of foreign citizens, but rather that this is done by the competent authorities.

"The competent authorities decide on such matters in Serbia. These are judicial authorities, and in accordance with the Constitution of Serbia, European and world charters, as is appropriate," Vučić stated.

He added that the competent authorities should be asked about extraditions.

Vučić said that he could ask when Montenegro will respect the United Nations Charter and Resolution 12.44.

"I could have asked when you would respect international public law and international legal norms and return to respecting the United Nations Charter and Resolution 12.44, which is a much more important issue than the fate of one man," Vučić said.
