Vucic made it clear that the leader of the Kosovo separatists is mentally ill
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic commented on the Kosovo separatist leader’s assumptions about “the annexation of Presevo, Medveja and Bujanovac to the Republic of Kosovo” and made it clear that he does not see a compromise without returning the region to Serbia.
Serbian media reported this, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Speaking to the press after a reception in honor of COVID-19 center doctors at the Palace of Serbia in Belgrade, Aleksandar Vučić discussed his position on the alleged territorial exchange plans between Kosovo and Serbia, voiced by Kosovo separatist leader Hashim Thaçi, specifically the exchange of the Serbian Preševo Valley for 17 Serbian villages in northern Kosovo.
“I will not respond to such proposals, because they are meaningless, like Thaci’s dream of annexing Medveja, Bujanovac and Presevo,” said the Serbian President. – I am not a doctor, and I will not comment on this. Let him remain in his fantasies. But when you look, for example, at Medvedja, you can only smile at such “offers” - only about 6,5 percent of Albanians live there... 42 percent of Serbs live in Bujanovac.
I do not understand what are you talking about. What are the 17 villages? We have four municipalities in the north [of Kosovo] – Leposavic, Zubin Potok, Zvecan and Kosovska Mitrovica. We have six other recognized communities [in southern Kosovo] that do not include the [Serb-populated] Priluzje, Plemetine and Babin Most.”
Vučić emphasized that there are established borders, confirmed in 1999 by a UN Security Council resolution that confirmed Serbia’s sovereignty over Kosovo. And he said that at yesterday’s meeting with representatives of the Quinta countries (the five largest Western states overseeing political processes in the Balkans - the USA, Great Britain, France, Italy, and Germany), he asked them to tell him about their options for solving the Kosovo problem, except for those that are discussed in the media. And I did not receive an intelligible answer.
“Serbia is not even close to the country it was 10 or 20 years ago. Today, thanks to our efforts, it is still not as strong as we would like, but many times stronger than in 1999, 2000, 2006, 2008, 2010... The only thing we need is to conduct politics wisely, maintain peace , push the economy, be as successful as possible,” added the Serbian leader.
