Klink: American stance on Kosovo-Serbia reports has changed

Movement for the Union Secretary-General Avni Klinaku has voiced conviction that the American stance in relation to Kosovo has changed. In his post, he wrote down how and why that attitude changed.

“Initially, which is very important, US stance and support for Kosovo and its independence has undergone no changes. The change of American stance concerns only the Kosovo-Serbia reports, the way Kosovo-Serbia solves remaining problems after declaring independence”, Klinaku has said.

According to him, until last year the United States has maintained its firm stance that outstanding issues between Kosovo and Serbia should be found within existing borders and did not allow the parties to get out of those frameworks.

Thus, to prevent Serbia from ranking on the east side, so on the Russian side, the US has committed Serbia to heading towards the EU, and to achieve that, of course, Serbia would have to recognise Kosovo and have a border agreement. But, after many years, this has proved impossible, despite the major concessions the US has made to Serbia in Kosovo, through Brussels talks. This should be the first reason why the United States, through the highest officials, has made it clear that from now on, to move forward, the border issue will not be taboo and can open for discussion if it leads to a final” agreement, he said.

The second reason, according to him, along with rushing to find another way to solve this problem is to try to prevent the energetic extent of Russian influence in Balkan space.

At least that's what all CIA and UN reports say. So by finding a solution to Kosovo-Serbia and Serbia opens the way to the EU and away from Russia, Kosovo and Albanians are strengthened as an antirus element in the Balkans”, he has said, says Koha.net. This changes in American attitude should be taken very seriously. Any neglect to this factor can cost us a high price of”, he added, the Periscope broadcast.
