Days earlier in an authorial writing published in his media, Veton Surroi, had pressed charges against journalist and publicist Baton Haxhiu, who has called him an accomplice of the Serbian Secret Service.
While journalist Haxhiu seems to have no intention of arguing with Surroi by not dealing with those charges, Mr. Haxhiu's son, Andy Haxhiu, has made an authorial note about Veton Surroi's activity.
Andy Haxhiu in his writing, among other things, was referring to British author Ivor Anthony Roberts, who in his book wrote that former Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic had preferred Kosovo Prime Minister Veton Surroi, not Bujar Bukoshi.
But who is Sir Ivor Anthony Roberts, and what does Veton Surroi mention?
Ivor Anthony Roberts is an English diplomat, former ambassador of Great Britain in Yugoslavia during 1994,1997, in Ireland and Italy, as well as former president of Territy College at the University of Oxford.
He in 2016 had published his book The Talks With Milosevic” (Conversations with Milosevic), in which he names Veton Surroi, that is, according to him, acceptable to the former Serb criminal for Kosovo prime minister.
In his book Ivor Anthony Roberts notes that during a conversation with Milosevic, the latter had indicated that he did not love Bujar Bukoshi, but that he preferred Veton Surroi to prime minister instead.
I returned to the Contact Group's base of requests, which required the withdrawal of security forces from Kosovo. This goes to a discussion: During the period when the situation calmed down, that he would allow you to withdraw. I told him he should take the first step. Without the withdrawal of forces, Rugova and his negotiators would not have the necessary political support to engage in dialogue. They [Rugova and his negotiators] had undertaken physical and substantial political risks at the meeting with Milosevic. Milosevic [referring to meeting] made “zhurma” positive for the meeting, and mentioned Veton Surroi (the editor of the leading newspaper in Kosovo) in particular as KREYMIANSTER instead of Bujar Bukosh”, wrote in his book Sir Ivor Anthony Roberts. /Periscopi/
