French and British diplomats: Border game causes destabilisation in Balkans

So begins the report on the possible exchange of territories between Kosovo and Serbia, the renowned American website BuzzFed News.

European officials, according to this media, are concerned with the approach of the Trump administration, which could cause destabilisation in Southeast Europe.

According to the two diplomatic sources of this American news portal, the possible exchange of territories could end with a destabilisation of the region, which only 25 years ago had genocide and major conflicts.

A spokesman in Great Britain has told Buzfeed News that normalising Kosovo-Serbia reports is crucial to the security and stability of the region.

But sources added that the agreement should be based on current borders. Insulating that the eventual change of borders could cause destabilisation.

Another French diplomat said about the American portal that the ideas recently discussed are frightening.

You just don't know what happens if the limit is affected, he said.

“Germania, meanwhile, continues to strongly oppose the idea of exchange of land. And until recently, so has America. But diplomats think the Trump administration has adopted a stance, calling on countries to settle disputes by themselves”, the Buzfeed News report said.

Ivan Vejvoda, a former senior adviser in Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic's foreign policy, has spoken about these developments.

He said a compromise is very close.

“Call it what you want, separation, exchange, correction. But this subject has always been in the background. Since the 2000s it's been discussed after the scenes. Now we're there again, the reason we're talking about is that there's a will to find a solution”, Vejvoda said.

And former Foreign Minister in Kosovo Petrit Selimi has said the Kosovo-Serbia agreement must meet three conditions.

Serbia must recognise Kosovo. The agreement will not cause conflict, and America and the EU will support the political agreement”, Selimi said.

Western diplomats are therefore afraid America has no clear position, broadcast news.net.

At this time of major Serbian diplomat developments, Ivica Dacic had paid a visit to America, where he said the American stance has changed.

He there had held meetings with top officials such as John Bolton and Wes Mitchell.

But so far what hasn't spoken in all this situation is the EU.

Moghrin's office has at no moment commented on the possibility of exchanging territories, saying dialogue aims at the full normalisation of reports between the two states.
