So has the correspondent in the Balkans of the Russian newspaper “Kommersant”, Genadij Sisoyev, writes Periscopi.
Sisojev has told the news agency “Beta” that it is likely that Moscow will be included for the first time in the category opposition to the agreement being made in Brussels.
“Moscow will not only oppose it, but I will also warn Belgrade of possible negative consequences in case it makes any deal”, Sisev has said.
According to him, Moscow is convinced that after reaching this agreement, UN Security Council Resolution 1244 will be abolished, paving the way for Kosovo and Serbia towards NATO membership, which further turns Serbia away from Russia.
“in essence, Moscow's main reason to try to prevent the agreement, is because it aims to avoid Kosovo and Serbia's approach to the Alliance”, he has said.
He has estimated that if Vuciq agreed on Kosovo in Brussels, he risks worsening relations with Russia and, on the other hand, if he does not sign the agreement risks worsening relations with the European Union.
“This will be the end of eating two tablespoon”, Conkluding Sisoyev.
Zeleznak had said two days earlier that Russia does not support a unilateral agreement that is being discussed between Pristina and Belgrade in Brussels. /Periscope.
