Kurti for "The Times": We need the USA, Britain and the EU, but...

The Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, in an interview for The Times, spoke about the tensions in the north of Kosovo.

Kurti has said that Kosovo needs the help of the USA, Britain and the EU, but nevertheless emphasizes that this help should not be in the direction of appeasing the autocrats.

"The more Serbia aligns with Russia, the more the West treats Serbia with higher respect and tolerance compared to the way it treats Kosovo. We listened to all the demands of the West, we refrained from claiming genocide against Serbia, we made inappropriate agreements and concessions...but Serbia remains a leading candidate for the EU despite breaking the Ohrid agreement," he said, adding, "We we have seen the West, the EU and the US are silent on this."

The latest crisis in the Balkans may sound trivial, involving four local mayors serving a population of around 50,000, but it has pitted Kurt against not only Vučić, but the forces that, with their military intervention against Slobodan Milosevic in in 1999, led to the independence of Kosovo.

They have spent a decade trying to lure Vucic away from his closest friend, Putin.

With its diplomatic and military focus fully engaged in Ukraine, the last thing the West wants is another confrontation, which is why there is a 'clash' with Kurti, when he insisted on taking a hard line, writes The Times.

"The EU, USA, Great Britain, recognize the democratic process of elections", he said, adding: "If the president will not work from his office, where will he work from?". There are two key questions hanging over the future of Kosovo, where 13,000 people died in the bloody civil war that NATO's intervention ended. The first is the degree of autonomy it will give to that part, where locals fly Serbian flags. The second is whether Serbia will ever recognize Kosovo's independence and lift its embargo against countries like Russia that do so?"
