Pacolli: I shook Trump's hand tight, his security pushed me to speak

Kosovo Foreign Affairs Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Behgjet Pacolli has talked about the unpleasant situation he had had with Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabiq, at the UN building, on his recent US trip, Periscopi reports. Pacolli said he couldn't pass without greeting him. I couldn't get through without [...]

Pacolli said he couldn't pass without greeting him.

I couldn't get through without saying goodbye. She asked who gave you permission. How else could I say, "You've given us a license?" All my answers were ironic. Then she told me that “if we were asked, you would never get in here”. And then I said again with irony I said “we worship this woman”. What else was I to say, except how I answered legally, as was her question. She knows we have special permits to get into that building, but you're in the main room. We've met again with Brnabych, we've reached out to each other and we've walked. You can't avoid meeting with them”, Pacolli said at CTV's Rubikon.

On the other hand, he also talked about holding hands with American President Donald Trump.

He calls it a date.

I don't post on Facebook and on Tateter that I don't have time. If you look at the Albanian dictionary: the meeting can also be a handshake. I met Trump. I've been holding his hand, hard. There was a square. I was with a friend. I didn't even see Trump coming. I've seen security, and in the moment I hear: reach out, reach out. Trump comes and takes two steps towards me. I met him in 1997. Did he remember my face or not, I don't know. In 2012, I had a meeting with Trump, which was cancelled because I didn't arrive on time. I also met her in 1987 in Moscow. He was in the Commission for a missus being elected then. Then we talked to him too long. He was a businessman. If I knew he would become president, I would invest in friendship with him. An assurance pushed me forward, and I extend his hand. The cop clears the space and makes me shake the hand of Trump”, that's Pacolli. / P ERISCOPIA
