(Tanjug). A session will be held at the UN Security Council Friday regarding the situation in Kosovo-Metohija, at which Serbia's position will be presented by Serbian President Boris Tadic.

The session will consider the latest report of the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, in which the situation in the province was assessed as relatively peaceful, but potentially fragile, and Belgrade and Pristina were urged to put aside the issue of status considerations in the interest of regional cooperation.

In his report, Ban called on Serbia and Kosovo to be flexible, in order to define the way that Kosovo can participate in regional and international mechanisms and forums, which is, according to him, necessary for an economic and democratic development and a long term stability of the region.

Ban Ki-moon stated that UNMIK will remain devoted to facilitating the engagement of all sides so as to find practical solutions for the issues of common interest.

Inter-ethnic incidents particularly remain present in the northern part of Kosovska Mitrovica, which is a reason for concern, Ban's report reads.
