Former ambassador to London and the Vatican, Vladeta Janković, says that the United States and Germany have a crucial role in solving the Kosovo problem, and that France has the least influence there and that the actions of those two countries “will break destiny. of Kosovo “within a period that today is unpredictable. specify “, but think that it is” more a matter of months than years. “
Jankovic told H1 that it would be another terrible blow for Serbia, as well as a great temptation for the Vucic regime. “Personally, I am convinced that Vucic will not tighten the noose to sign something like that, we simply must not – people would blow his mind, and in that case we will face the denial of Western aid, loans, in the worst case and sanctions, so we can expect dramatic times when that happens, “Janković said for the first half.
He assessed that Vučić may have spoken with Macron about the idea of the division of Kosovo, “although he doubts because the division of Kosovo is not realistic.”
“If we are to speak well, regardless, France has the least influence here,” Janković said.
When asked about the statement by Macron, who said that innovative solutions are the only possible solution to the Kosovo problem, he stressed that the wording “can mean everything and nothing.” “And I am more inclined to believe that it means nothing. I doubt that Kosovo was talked about much in Paris, everything is in a kind of dead state, partly due to the consequences of the pandemic, but also to the situation in the countries that they deal with the Kosovo problem, starting with the United States and Germany and the European community as a whole. “
He assessed that he believes that practical matters were discussed in Paris and that this is what is in the best interest of French economic interests: the construction of the metro and other French investments here “with all possible phrases about eternal friendship and unbreakable alliance of the First World War” .
“I doubt that much was said about Kosovo, and even if it was talked about, Macron had to repeat what has been said about Kosovo for years – for Serbia to sign a legally binding agreement with Kosovo as a state – which is the equivalent of recognition,” Jankovic said.
He stressed that this agreement turns Kosovo into a state and opens the way for the UN, which takes it out of our de jure sphere of possession.
“We can wait for Madeleine Albright and that approach, which is by no means a pleasant prognosis.”
Jankovic also claims that all things in international politics, including the Kosovo issue, have slowed down due to the pandemic, and that not much has been met with the Washington agreement, and that the location of the Kosovo embassy in Jerusalem “complicates things.”
He also doubts that anything else will be fulfilled in that agreement, apart from what is in the immediate interest of US capital. “There are no big political changes here, unless you consider that the Lake Gazivode change will be called Trump Lake,” says Janković.
When asked what to expect from Washington and the new US administration on the Kosovo issue, he claimed that right now, the Biden administration faces unusually difficult tasks after the infamous end of Trump’s term, that many problems remain, but also a deeply divided nation. “The force of the problem will have to be resolved at home and internationally, and I don’t see them concentrating on our region in the near future, and when that happens, we can look forward to Madeleine Albright and that approach, which is by no means a pleasant forecast.” , said.
When asked what we can do, he says:
“Maybe Marko Đurić should withdraw from the United States, if that helps.”
“Europe doesn’t want us and that door is closing on us”
When asked to comment on his earlier criticisms of the election of diplomatic staff in Moscow, Washington, London, Jankovic said it was now clear to what extent our diplomacy was immature and to what extent “everything was directed to the Dacic era.” .
“And I don’t see that it is better in the time of Selaković, who is more concerned with the appearance of everything else: the history of art and the history of mythological motifs, rather than diplomacy,” says Janković, citing not signing. a trade agreement with Great Britain.
“There are no criteria and young people who have not matured for it or recycled personnel who were very saddled during Milosevic’s time reach diplomacy,” Jankovic said.
He also pointed out that he believes that our foreign policy is from today to tomorrow, that it is an ad hoc policy and that we are not proactive, but always passive.
“As for the path to the EU, I am convinced that it is an illusion, that this niche is not happening so that things do not go forward, but backward,” Jankovic said, pointing to the fact that we did not open any negotiations. chapters last year.
“Europe does not want us and that door is closed for us, and we must understand it and act in accordance with that conclusion,” he said.
He added that both the Chinese and the Russians have economic interests in our country that are very favorable for them, and are not bad for us, and that it works, but it has a price. “We will see that now Washington and the West will decide on Kosovo, because that is all,” said the diplomat.
