(2 years ago)US President Donald Trump's former National Security Council during his first term at the White House, John Bolton, in a recently released interview has ruled out the possibility of restoring the idea of exchange of territories. Bolton has said that stability in the Balkans and resolving the problem between Kosovo and Serbia is important [...]
Bolton has said that stability in the Balkans and resolving the problem between Kosovo and Serbia is important for many reasons, and one of them is downplaying Russia's prospects of influence in the region.
This is possible. I believe that stability in the Balkans and resolving this long-standing political conflict is important for many reasons. One of them is to minimize Russia's chances of causing problems in the Balkans. If you see what's happening in Moldova or in the first round of presidential elections in Romania, I think Russian intervention is clearly present”, Bolton said.
When talking about finding a solution, Bolton has used the Macedonia name issue as a comparison, saying it was a good solution for all.
Whatever we can do, which brings a solution, I'm not saying that we're forcing anything against anyone, but if it's something that benefits everyone, like the case of Macedonia's name today called Northern Macedonia, so if there's any chance of bringing good solutions to everyone, I think it should be America's priority to find confidence in the way to end conflict. All change the sheet, talk more about NATO membership in the EU. Stability in the Balkans would be good for all. I'm not saying at all costs, but there's something to keep in mind”He said Bolton.
