It’s sad that the disobeyed even Episcopal Council and Metropolitan Amfilohije who asked not to take people to the streets and to refrain from provoking riots in the present situation. Given the fact that this is very important issue, we are planning to hold session where we will discuss all those issues”, Mr Čavor said.
