WASHINGTON, Feb 22 (Reuters) - The United States holds the Serbian government responsible for the attack on the U.S. embassy in Belgrade this week by rioters angry over Kosovo's secession, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said on Friday.

Speaking to reporters, Rice said the Serbian government had failed in its obligation to protect the U.S. Embassy, as well as a number of other embassies, from attack on Thursday.

"They had an obligation to protect diplomatic missions, and, from what we can tell, the police presence was either inadequate or unresponsive at the time," she said.

"We do hold the Serb government responsible. We've made that very clear," Rice said, adding, "We don't expect that to happen again." The United States protested against the attack on Thursday to Serbian authorities.

Earlier on Friday the State Department approved a request from the U.S. ambassador in Belgrade for family members and non-emergency personnel to be allowed to leave the Serbian capital until security there improves.

A U.S. official said 90 Americans, including officials and their families, were departing Belgrade for now;
