Gervailla: We discovered Wagner mercenaries at border, Russia, Serbia doing secret actions in region

Kosovo Foreign Affairs Minister Donika Grovalla has shown in an interview for the Jewish newspaper Israel Hayom how Serbia has threatened war over the past two years.

Asked about the danger of the war, Gervala said Serbia and Russia are making <x0 secret operations” in other countries of the region as well.

In the last two years alone, Serbian President Vuciq threatened Kosovo several times with war, even deploying troops on our border, sending combat aircraft, hosting the Russian ambassador for visits there, including the Russian Army at the Serbian Defence Ministry, increasing Russian military capacities and exercises with Russia from about 10 to about 100 per year during 2021. Recently, we discovered Wagner mercenaries at our border and smuggling weapons to Kosovo. Other secret activities from Russia and Serbia are taking place in other countries in the region”, Gervala said.

Unlike many others, Gervalla said that “we know Vucicin and his Foreign Minister Daciq” very well.

The two people were the closest aides to the Balkan Casap, former Serbian President and war criminal Milosevic. Vuciq was his minister of propaganda, and Dacic was his right hand during the war, the worst massacres and atrocities against our country and our people, not only did they not apologize, but they also publicly honor war criminals and deny and fake events”, the Kosovo chief diplomat said.

The reason this aggressive approach is not turning into open conflict is the self-control of our government and the presence of American troops in Kosovo. Only recently, the United States gave a stern warning to Vuciqi, who wanted to deploy Serb troops to our country”, Grovall said.

She said that “Kosovo, like Israel, is used to continuing threats”, stressing that “we are part of the West, while Serbia is Putin's representative”.

“is not perfect, but we continue to live our lives and develop our country”, Gervala said.

Russia's war in Ukraine, Gervala said it has an impact all over the world and that “is a war between dictatorships and aggressive regimes and the free world”.

Serbia not only violated an important treaty with the EU by refusing sanctions against Russia. In October 2022, Serbia signed an agreement with Russia to do just what it refused in connection with the EU, she signed to harmonise its foreign policy with Putin”, she said.

Gervala said Serbia is contributing to the killing of innocent families in Ukraine, while he says that “all countries should take seriously the threat to international order”.

“Israel, Kosovo and other countries, small and large, must invest heavily in protecting this rule based on rules. If we fail to defend our peaceful world order, we can all end up again in a war age, but this time a completely different level, global”, Grovall said.
