Germany warned Serbia not to challenge EU over Kosovo

German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle urged Serbia to stop challenging Kosovo's independence and instead focus on a bid to join the European Union. Westerwelle said this during a visit to the Balkans. Germany disagrees with a resolution Serbia has presented to the UN General Assembly calling for further talks on Kosovo's status. Westerwelle also warned Serbia to avoid confrontation with the EU over Kosovo.

Serbia indicated they would not back down.
