“I am a lover of direct communication” - the American ambassador recklessly invited the Serbs to ask him questions on social networks
US Ambassador to Serbia Christopher Hill decided to play “good cop.” The diplomat must, in the coming days, answer questions that Serbian citizens will ask him on social networks. Questions are already coming in, with most of them relating to Kosovo and Metohija, as well as NATO aggression.
Moreover, citizens are also interested in when the US will withdraw its recognition of Kosovo, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
US Embassy press attache Matthew Underwood told Tanjug that Hill is always looking for ways to communicate directly with Serbian citizens and that the US Embassy hopes the initiative will be popular.
“If it is successful, we will definitely consider continuing it in the future. Citizens have a few days to ask questions and we hope to publish the first answers soon,” Underwood said.
Thus, Hill has already received more than 150 questions on the “American Embassy” Facebook* and Twitter accounts.
In two hours, there were more than 100 questions and comments on Twitter, with an emphasis on Kosovo and Metohija and US relations with Serbia.
Frequently asked questions: “Why do you continue to support the terrorist-separatist KLA regime in Kosovo?” or “When do you plan to withdraw recognition of Kosovo? ”
One of the questions also concerned Croatia's handling of the largest ethnic cleansing since World War II.
"What is your government's position on the traditional Croatian commemoration of the largest ethnic cleansing in Europe since World War II? What do you say about the denial of the crime known as 'Storm' and the fact that no one has been punished for it?" asked one Twitter user.
One Twitter user asked Ambassador Hill if there was anything he could do to get Novak Djokovic to play at the US Open. Some are also interested in exporting weapons to the United States.
They are also interested in whether the US plans concrete actions to help Serbia prepare for EU membership by 2025, and then NATO. One Twitter user asked, " When and why did the US forget the pure and sincere soul of the Serbian people?"
In addition, among the uncomfortable questions, users voice their desire to know how he views the violation of the UN Charter, when NATO committed a criminal act of aggression against the sovereign state of the FRY, and what norm of international law served as the basis for this.
One, in addition to the usual ones related to Kosovo and Metohija, reads: “Will the criminals be held accountable for NATO aggression and the murder of children? ”
Thus, this will most likely be the first and last time that an American envoy will conduct such an attraction of unprecedented generosity in Serbia.
