Kurt for Vuchy: Brussels and Washington have bet on the wrong horse, but it's got a fox.

Prime Minister Albin Kurti, in an interview the Croatian newspaper “Vecernji List”, has said the international community, Brussels and Washington, instead of reflecting and punishing Serbia are hitting the prime minister of Kosovo.

“Brussels and Washington have bet on the wrong horse in Serbia, on the president there. It turned out to be not a horse at all, but a fox. Neither has anyone imagined that a year or five months after Russian aggression in Ukraine, Serbia will impose sanctions on Moscow, but would even allow Sputnik to hold regional base in Belgrade. Instead of reflecting and inspecting them, they hit me. Brussels and Washington allowed Vucinciqi not to sign the agreement from Brussels and Ohrid, then break that agreement and here we are in a situation where there is a drastic asymmetry in approach. Punishment measures against me, and forgiveness for President Vuciq. This is an injustice. But they say these measures will be short, temporary and returnable, so let's see. With international factors, both Europeans and Americans, we have regular communication and coordination, but we also have small differences, sometimes in tactics, and sometimes, eventually, strategies. But as far as values, interests, and goals are concerned, we have no difference”, Kurti has indicated.

Prime Minister Kurti has said the international community “is more optimistic for Vucqi than for itself”.

The international Union is aware that it concerns an extreme right-wing Belgrade, which in rotation creates problems in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Kosovo every month is next. We want justice, while the international community fears destabilisation and there is a gap. This gap extends with another gap when the international community has low expectations from Vuciqi to the present, yet high expectations in the medium term. Therefore, whenever Belgrade makes a positive gesture, they exaggerate it because they have extremely low expectations. In that sense, the international community, paradoxically, is more optimistic about Vuciqi than about itself! Of course, I am the biggest optimist, but I am optimistic about Kosovo, about the EU and NATO, but not when it comes to Vuciqih”, Kurti said, when asked whether the EU and NATO want the creation of Republika Srpska within Kosovo.
