Neither is [Kosovo Prime Minister, Albin] Kurti, who seems to want to become part of that team, since he has also written something, but he has no right to write it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vu\u010di\u0107 emphasized that the statute of the Association must adhere to previous agreements and procedures.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have nothing to negotiate here. Just give us the principles, organs and bodies of the Association as negotiated and as signed with [then Prime Minister of Kosovo] Isa Mustafa. We ask for nothing more. Do you know when that will be? Never. Certainly not while Kurti is in power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want him [Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti] to never have a war biography. We must preserve peace and stability, almost at any cost, but without compromising vital national and state interests,\u201d the Serbian President added further.<\/p>\n<p>In a speech on the 32<sup>nd<\/sup> anniversary of the Socialist Party, Prime Minister Edi Rama openly expressed his regret with how Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 and Albin Kurti had rejected his draft for the Association without reading its content.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am glad that the effort to make a concrete contribution to the dialogue has been well received by the allies. While those who have opposed it, without knowing the content, as in Pristina and Belgrade, saying that they do not want to hear a proposal from Albania, I have two words to them. First, those who speak like this still have communism in their heads, when politics was about who said it, not what was said. Second, this region is ours as well as others\u2019. If they prefer to continue playing war while neither side can open fire on each-other, not a single shot that crosses the borders because there is the US and NATO. The allies are running out of patience. I tell them that we are not interested in the game of wars at all, but we are against that war!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pristina has held the same rejecting stance for the draft proposed by Rama, considering it unnecessary as it was not consulted beforehand with the leaders of the state of Kosovo.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the European Union has valued Rama\u2019s proposal, which has reached the tables of French President Macron and German Chancellor Scholz, as highly qualitative and written with seriousness.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the situation in north Kosovo and the Serbian army\u2019s combat readiness level, Vu\u010di\u0107 announced that \u201cwe have transitioned from the highest level to a slightly lower level, but we are always ready to help our people in Kosovo and Metohija\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Serbian President stated that he is concerned about the escalation of the situation in Kosovo, as well as in Ukraine and the pressure that will likely fall on Serbia because of them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even Serbia\u2019s President Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 does not welcome Albania\u2019s Prime Minister Edi Rama proposal for the Association of Serb-majority municipalities in Kosovo.
