Macedonia raises the alarm: Serbia to test chemical fears at border with Kosovo tomorrow

Defence Minister Ejup Macedonia 24 hours after blocking the border with Serbia of over 1,500 Kosovo citizens, said these actions from Belgrade came after Aleksandar Vuciq's calls to the “Cobra”.

He raised the alarm that Serbia, with its hegemonistic and aggressive approach towards Kosovo, will cause tensions to continue.

According to Macedonia, this is shown by the next 8 April exercise at the Kosovo border, where the Serbian Army is testing offensive weapons, despite having been spent as a preparation for the protection of the territory.

We think these tensions will continue. There may be other forms, one that we have observed from April 8th to 21st, is an exercise that the Serbian Army is conducting in the southern part of Serbia's territory. It is one of the largest the Serbian Army has ever developed. At the time this exercise is being realised and the use of equipment and weapons system in this exercise poses a threat to stability and security in the Balkans”, he said at A2 CNN.

All actions he has taken so far have been camouflaged by Serbia as preparation and militarism for defence. Serbia will test offensive equipment, not defence. Although it has placed 48 bases on the border with Kosovo south of its territory, it has continued to advertise that all this mobilization has been to prepare the protection of the territory. Tomorrow we will be witnesses that Serbia will test offensive capacities, among them, and fear suicide that are not used to protect but for attacks against someone else. ”

According to him, mobilization of NATO to increase the presence of KFOR troops in Kosovo and Bosnia comes after the risk assessment by local authorities and the purchase of weapons consistently from Belgrade.
