“Russia wants no Serbia agreement with Kosovo”

Centre for Euro-Atlantic Studies Director (CEAS) Jelena Miliq thinks Russia wants no agreement between Serbia and Kosovo, broadcasts Koha.net.

For this reason, according to her, Serbia is located between two fires, while adding that co-operation with Russia depends on the support the Trump administration gives Serbia.

Milic for “Radio Kosova 2” in the Serbian language, commenting on the results of Vuciki's visit to Moscow has said that despite lack of official information, it is clear that Russia does not want movement in talks between Belgrade and Pristina.

She explained that the longer it takes to reach Serbia's Kosovo agreement, the longer it will be the period of Russia's “intervention” in the region, which enables the existence of even a neural clause Russia can exploit for its own interests.

And these interests serve primarily for discrediting European policies in the region. For this reason Serbia is located between two fires”, Miliq says.

She has said Serbia's equipment with Russian helicopters MI35 has been very counterproductive.

This is known more or less in Serbia, while buying military equipment from Russia may affect relations with the US due to sanctions Washington has imposed and because of Russia's involvement in Ukraine, as well as the involvement in partner countries' internal affairs”, Miliq stressed.

It has estimated that communication between Serbia and NATO is much better.

“I think that a small increase of international troops in Bosnia or Kosovo could occur in the period of reaching any comprehensive eventual agreements”, Miliq stressed.
