Kurti complains in Croatian media about Washington and Brussels, says they committed injustice when imposing punitive measures against him

In this interview the first executive has not spared criticism of the European Union and the United States of America for their approach to Kosovo and Serbia.

“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”, declared Kurti for “Vecernji List”

Kurti says Brussels and Washington did injustice to him by imposing punitive measures until at the same time, according to him, thanks to Serbia's president.

“Brussels and Washington allowed Vucicin 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 access. Punishment measures against me, and forgiveness for President Vuciq. This is an injustice”.

He hopes EU punitive measures will be short-term.

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 stated, among other things.
