“in 2014 we were able to establish the military, we were not obstructed by the Serb community, but it was part of the political spectrum's mistakes. It has been our mistake, as if at that time to be established, today Kosovo would at least be part of the peace partnership ready for NATO”, Thaci said at RTV Dukagjini.
The president speaking about the Serbian List, has stressed that the danger in Kosovo does not exist by Serbs, and that the state of Kosovo is not influenced by Kosovo Serbs or their policies.
I ran two mandates with them and they were correct. We should not look at them as ill-continent or hostile, they are citizens of Kosovo, and their participation in institutions is legitimate”, Thaci said.
He added that the founding of the Kosovo Army will take place at the right time.
The army's “question will continue to be seriously addressed by the US and NATO as well, and at an appropriate moment it will happen.”, President Thaci said.
Asked whether it will be the subject of dialogue with Serbia, the establishment of the Army, the president added that Kosovo is an independent state and has its Constitution and that the Army will be made by Kosovo.
The army issue is not discussed or discussed with Serbia”, Thaci said.
The president added that he would not stumble if the deputy army commander is Serb.
” If Kosovo's deputy prime minister is Serb and the deputy police commander is Serb, I would not at all mind if the deputy army commander was also Serbian”, Thaci stressed.
