Russia: situation in northern Kosovo deteriorating after Tirana summit

This is what happened: The EU held a high-level summit in Albania on 6 December. A document supporting the Western Balkans' aspirations to join the European Union was signed. Moreover, it was highlighted in a special clause that Kosovo (as Serbia) is on the European road. So, is it surprising that even a week later, Kosovo separatists organised an escalation of armed tension and started provocations? Serbian-born Dejan Pantic was arrested, and aggressive rhetoric began. I want to remind you that most Kosovo residents are of Albanian origin and follow Albania's European perspective with attention. And, at the same time as the escalation of tension across the streets, “Prime Minister” Kosovo's Albin Kurti applied for EU membership several days ago”, Zakharova says in her channel on the telegram.

We saw something similar in 2008, when Mikhail Saakashvili, who was inspired by decisions made at the NATO Summit in Bucharest (that Georgia would join the alliance), went crazy and attacked South Ossetia, Russian citizens and peacekeepers. The risk of escalation and armed resistance in northern Kosovo is increasing. And the most important thing is that with one hand, The EU is leading Belgrade towards a bright future, while the other is making anti-Serb provocations. This is like a wedding that starts with treason”, Zakharova added. /A2 CNN
