Renowned Serbian journalist: Serbia does not enter the EU without recognising Kosovo as state

Serbian political and military affairs journalist and analyst Miroslav Lazanski, analyzing US President Donald Trump's letter to Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Kosovo President Hashim Thaci, said it contains nothing extraordinary.

Lazanski for Serbian media stressed that the American president, in his letter, requires reconciliation, progress in the future of Serbs and Albanians, but it is not clear what agreement needs to be reached.

“If we assume that this means that the north of Kosovo belongs to Serbia and that the Serb enclaves south of the Iber River are part of the Serb Communist Community, and that all Serbian cultural and religious sites are under international protection, if this is what is considered "demarkation" -- will the Albanian side accept it?”, Lazanski asked.

Lazanski finds it is not certain whether Trump has been notified by all shades, “since Serbs and Albanians for the US are not equal partners, because the United States has recognised Kosovo's territorial integrity, which means they automatically do not recognise Serbia's territorial integrity”.

“Compromis for Kosovo should not be just a Serb municipality community. As far as I know, Washington doesn't offer more than this”, Lazanski said.

He stressed that he would never be able to fully understand and what had caused all the hostility of the West towards Serbia and Serbs in the early nine years.

“Only one thing I know for sure, Serbia cannot enter the EU without clear recognition of Kosovo. Everything else is our” illusion, Lazanski said, broadcast Periscopi.
