Serbian President Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 clarified in an interview with Sky News that Milan Radoji\u010di\u0107 should not be regarded as his friend but rather as a close collaborator due to his former role as the vice president of the Serb List, the largest political party representing Serbs in Kosovo.<\/p>\n
Vu\u010di\u0107 emphasized that Radoji\u010di\u0107 is facing serious charges in Serbia, indicating that their relationship is not based on personal friendship but on political associations.<\/p>\n
The discussion revolved around the attack that took place on September 24, when an armed group targeted the Kosovo Police in Banjska, Zvecan. This attack resulted in the death of a Kosovo Police officer named Afrim Bunjaku.<\/p>\n
Following the attack, the assailants sought refuge in the Banjska Monastery, leading to a standoff with the police. During the ensuing clashes, three of the attackers lost their lives.<\/p>\n
The European Union characterized the incident as a terrorist act, while Serbia vehemently denied any involvement in the attack. Milan Radoji\u010di\u0107 was singled out as a suspect in the case.<\/p>\n
Regarding the situation in Kosovo, President Vu\u010di\u0107 refrained from labeling the attackers as terrorists but did condemn the killing of the Kosovo Police officer.<\/p>\n
He suggested that the individuals involved in the attack had been expelled from the area and expressed a desire to return.<\/p>\n
President Vu\u010di\u0107 also addressed the deployment of the Serbian army along the Kosovo border, asserting that this move was not intended to destabilize the region.<\/p>\n
He explained that the deployment was a response to the challenging circumstances in Kosovo and emphasized that it was not undertaken with the intention of launching an offensive.<\/p>\n
In the past, Serbia had stationed a significant number of soldiers near the border, but Vu\u010di\u0107 revealed that they had recently increased the presence to nearly 4,400 soldiers. He stated that international observers from the EU and the United States would monitor the situation.<\/p>\n
On October 3, the White House announced that Serbia \u201chad initiated the withdrawal\u201d of its forces from the Kosovo border, which was positively received by Washington as \u201cgood news\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Serbian army\u2019s deployment along the Kosovo border had been prompted by the events of September 24 in Banjska, Zvecan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
