Serbian government says Ahtisaari is biased

The Serbian government said on Sunday that Martti Ahtisaari, the Finnish UN mediator in talks over the future of Kosovo, clearly harboured sympathies for the Albanian separatist cause.

"It would be more honest of (Martti) Ahtisaari if he stepped down instead of seeing him openly, in front of the whole world, fall in line behind the Albanian separatists," Agence France-Presse quoted Srdjan Djuric, a Serbian government spokesman, as saying on Sunday.

"We are entitled to ask ourselves whether or not Mr Ahtisaari will organise, as his mandate stipulates, serious negotiations over the future of the province," he told Serbian news agency Tanjug.

Mr Ahtisaari was president of Finland in 1994-2000.
