Serbian president says Kosovo policy has failed
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Monday that his policy for Kosovo has suffered a defeat.
He told a meeting of his Serbian Progressive Party’s (SNS) top body that his policy of saving everything possible for Serbia in Kosovo had been defeated because the Serbs prefer >> Pročitaj celu vest na sajtu N1 televizija << to loose everything. “Serbs prefer crying over something that is far away than having something to hold,” Vucic said. “The first round goes to the Serbia which cries, not the Serbia which wins,” he added.
Speaking during the part of the SNS main board session which was open to the media, the president said that he faced the greatest possible pressure during the five years of negotiations on Kosovo. “When we tried to get something, we lost everything thanks to our own irresponsibility,” he said.
He said his speech in Kosovska Mitrovica was meant to show a discontinuity with the policies of Serbian and Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, but that no one wanted to hear that because the region needs a bad, beligerent Serbia which threatens war. Vucic said that many in the West do not want Serbia interfering in the Kosovo issue which he said is the product of an irresponsilbe and catastrophic policy earlier. “We threw ourselves out of the UN, we handed down a judgement against ourselves in 2012 (at the International Court of Justice which ruled that Kosovo’s declaration of independence was not in violation of international law) and in 2011 we set up a border at Brnjak separating Serbs from Serbs,” the Serbian president said.
He voiced “great fear” over “everything that is looming over Serbia” and added that he can’t predict “what is going to happen in the next 15-20 days”.
“Serbia was responsible in securing peace and stability in the region. We took care not to endanger the Serbs living in the region. Don’t forget that many view Serbia as an upsetting factor, believing that Serbia can only become someone’s friend when it is weak and demeans itself,” Vucic said. “I am prepared to apologise when we make a mistake but my job is to protect the country’s interest,” he said.
