Minister Vulin: Vučić is attacked because he will not recognize false state of “Kosovo“



- No matter what we do, no matter how much we grow economically, no matter how much President Vučić tries to preserve peace in the region in spite of others, no matter how much he tries to develop our economy and reform our society, none of that matters. The only thing that matters is "reaching a comprehensive legally binding agreement" – i.e. "recognition of Kosovo". They are only interested in that - the Minister of Defence, Aleksandar Vulin said today, in the morning programme of "Pink" Television, commenting on the issue of "Kosovo" as the biggest challenge facing President Vučić.
 
He also pointed out that, if Aleksandar Vučić had recognized "Kosovo", "they would require that he be proclaimed the president of everything for life, they would protect him, he would be the best, the cleverest, the biggest democrat and nothing else would matter".
 
- He will not recognize “Kosovo”, he will not recognize that false state, he protects Serbia’s interests, the interests of the Serbian people and that is why he is a victim of so many attacks. Priština had only one obligation - to establish the Association of Serb Municipalities, and Hoti says "we will do that when you recognize Kosovo". Europe does not comment because it created "Kosovo", they know what they did and they have to justify themselves. How else can they justify NATO aggression and years of favouring the KLA terrorists, than by saying that it is a state and that this is how it should be done - Minister Vulin pointed out.
 
According to him, President Vučić pursues a brave and wise policy, but it is very difficult. - For eight years, I have been hearing various people claim that "Kosovo" has already been recognized and sold. For eight years, Aleksandar Vučić has not allowed "Kosovo" to become a state. It is hard, it is not easy. You are facing threats from the most powerful people in the world. But he persevered. And that will be the biggest challenge, because when you listen to the statements of European Union officials, they all says "everything else depends on how you negotiate with Kosovo, and if you do not want to recognize it, you will bear responsibility for that, especially Aleksandar Vučić as the president." They are not interested in anything else - said Minister Vulin.
