Heavy Tons against Macron, criticism of Borrell: How's Vjosa Osman's blowing up against Europeans?

Vjosa Osmani, president of Kosovo, sent a threat to Europe days ago. But this was not the first time Osman erupted against European representatives. What did she say?

The Supreme Commander has spoken of warnings from France's president, Emmanuel Macron, of suspending visas unless responsible is carried out in dialogue with Serbia. President Osmani has said visa suspension kills dialogue forever and that these measures are not against politicians, but against the people of Kosovo.

I would say this is the way to kill dialogue once and for all. If someone wants to have no dialogue, then take such measures, which are punitive measures against the people of Kosovo”, the president Osmani has said among other things.

“Explosions” of President Osmani

President Osmani, before Macroni, had criticised the European Union's role in terms of dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia. Osmani, a year earlier, for TV Klan had demanded that Brussels respect the principle of equality on the sides.

The “is my impression as president of the Republic that the EU has not yet spoken in clear language in terms of Serbia's failure to implement agreements. Serbia in practice continues to do the opposite of what it signed, but the EU has not yet made public calls in relation to Serbia, where they are present in dialogue, but use the presence as instruction, so block any deal”, she said.

Osmani had also talked about continued EU criticism of Kosovo.

There is only one agreement that has not been implemented because there is a Constitutional Court decision in this direction. The European Union has been very vocal in this direction”, she said.

The Supreme Commander, had reacted furiously even after the European Union for Security and Foreign Policy High Representative Josep Borelli's statement, which on November 22nd, 2022, said Kosovo rejected the EU proposal, while Serbia accepted it.

Osman accused Borelli of bias.

The first rule of each mediating process is impartiality. What we saw today from Mr. Borrell was a openly distributed bias, accomodating the aggressor and presenting a completely distorted reality. Had Borrell respected the basic principles of neutrality, he would have mentioned Serbia, at least some of these broken Brussels agreements, instead of accusing Kosovo”, posting the Brussels agreements.

Then, the country's first interview had been given for “Balkan Talks” at Euronews Albania.

She did not regret her comments to the European diplomat, Nacional writes.

There was no explosion, it was a principled response because in any process the mediator should be impartial. What we saw that day was very clearly expressed bias by Mr. Borrell, blaming Kosovo for failing a process where at least Kosovo” was to blame, Osman said afterwards.

Osmani a <x0 use” was similar to Miroslav Lajcak, the EU's special envoy for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue. Lajcak had declared that Kosovo Assembly deputies should change the constitution so that the Association of Serbian municipalities can be lived, since it is not a religious book.

Osman had criticised Lajcak's approach, saying he is seeing a parallel reality from what is actually in Kosovo and that his statements do not serve the normalisation of reports between Kosovo and Serbia.

What parallel reality I try to introduce Mr. Lajcak I don't know, and I don't think so is not the way to move forward. During the meeting I have declared that Kosovo's constitution should be respected. His quotes are very disturbing because they have nothing to do with reality”, Osmani said in October 2020.
