Thaci: Russian stances differ if we reach agreement with Serbia

Thaci has said Russia's positions are familiar and they are also highlighted at the meeting he had with Russia's prime minister in Ankara, which has also stressed that if Kosovo and Serbia agree among themselves, the Russian position will be in line with your common agreement.

The “has not been any innovation, it has been something that has been known and I don't think Russia will take an even more Serb position than the position that Belgrade currently has. We, with the achievement of the Kosovo agreement, Serbia for normalisation, reconciliation and mutual recognition, take every Addite and opponents of independence not to curb our path to membership in the European Union, NATO and the United Nations Organisation”, Thaci has said during his visit to a company.

While, in terms of the founding of the Kosovo Army, Thaci has said that despite the obstacles it is good that the Ministry of Defence and KSF have taken a clear stance, that those leaving the KSF automatically leave the Kosovo Army.

There's not gonna be any fun here to leave or come back. It's in people's will, that's their entire individual will. We want to establish a professional, multiethnic, NATO standards army, so no organisation against the Kosovo Army, motivated by clear agenda from Belgrade, will be able to stem Kosovo's Euro-Atlantic future, the establishment of the military and the multiethnicity of this new Kosovo force. It is good that over 10% of the composition of the KSF are communities, about 5% are Serbs. Another 30-40 have left, another 30-40 are being integrated, and many more will be integrated. We will be together with them and build Kosovo together, but no one's agenda will be able to contain or veto the process”, he has said.
