Merkel's favorite politician, with relatives killed by the Ustashes: Who is Alexander Wuchitch?

The final phase of dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia will soon be held. The EU has reportedly demanded that this phase be held at the level of presidents. Our president is not known for his skills in dialogue because you can't be good at dialogue with such a limited dictionary and discredited his image in the country. But, the Serbian president, due to our bad fortune, is currently at his best moment.

Vuciq is German Chancellor Angela Merkel's favourite leader, who had not hesitated to support him even in the presidential elections held in Serbia last year. He had made those choices even more confident that Vuchiqi and her joys had been many.

Donald Tusk had called it at a meeting held a week ago by Serbian politics like “as creative as it was Nikola Tesla in science”. A very disturbing statement for Kosovo that has no idea how to deal with this creativity and that is eventually trying to unify the political spectrum against Vuciqi.

But who's Vuchy?

He is a 48-year-old who rules with iron hands in Serbia. His popularity is on the rise, while the opposition against him is funny. Vucinqi has demanded internal dialogue for Kosovo, but which by itself Serbs are being interpreted as a dentist. In the letter he wrote a year ago, however, he presented clear signs of progress, urging Serbs to accept the new reality, writes Periscope.

But behind that public letter, likely as readers more than the ordinary Serb living in Serbia, the reader in Brussels and Washington, he thought he was hiding the effort to get a lot from Kosovo. The association of Serb majority municipalities looks in the background. While territorial division is an idea said to be supported by it still.

He was born in Belgrade, but his origin is from central Bosnia. His first were expelled from their countries by Croatian fascists “ustasites” during World War II. The Ustashes had even killed his grandfather and dozens of other relatives.

Both his parents graduated from economics. Dad worked as an economist and his mother was a journalist. Vuciqi herself has carried out the law faculty at Belgrade University. He learned English in England while working as a merchant. After returning to Yugoslavia, he had worked as a journalist in Bosnia. At the time, he had interviewed war crimes politician Radovan Karadzic while playing chess with General Ratko Mladic.

As a young man, he had been a fierce fan of Crvena Ziesda and had attended her games from the stadium. Perhaps he was in the stadium even when Pristina had defeated his heart team in the 1980s, Periscope follows.

Vucinqi had beaten the Serbian Radical Party. [ The SRS] in 1993, which its ideology based on Serbian nationalism and aimed at “Great Serbia”. At the age of 24, he had become secretary general of the SRS.

In 1998, at the time of the war in Kosovo, he was elected Minister of Information and served in the government of Mirko Marianovac for two years. As impatience with Milosevic was increasing even within Serbia, he had uncleed journalists who had criticised the government and even banned some foreign television networks. In 2014 he had acknowledged that this was wrong, saying that “was not ashamed to confess his political errors. ”

During his period Serbian televisions were accused of distributing nationalist propaganda that demonstrated ethnic minorities and legalising atrocities committed by Serb forces against them. So, we're talking about wartime in Kosovo. A man who had been the victim of atrocities had become a rightful victim of atrocities against other victims.

After differences between Tomislav Nikolic and Vojislav Sezel, Vuciqi also changed the party by becoming with the first. The party was named “Progressive”. Since then, Vuchy has changed his views. He acknowledged that terrible crimes had been committed in Srebrenica, saying he was also ashamed of Serbs who had done that.

“I don't hide that I've changed... I'm proud of this thing,” he told the AFP in an interview in 2012.

As of 29 September 2012, Vuciq became the new leader of the progressive party and does not seem to intend to withdraw.

But, however, Vuciqi enjoys a good reputation in Serbia even for fighting corruption and organised crime.

However, a stain that can be removed is support for the “Greater Serbia project” and its earlier nationalism. His wise political movements make him a very problematic politician who can greatly damage Kosovo's future. /Periscopi
