He stated that the door is opening to a new chapter in US-Serbian relations, primarily in the economy.
“The United States will always protect the stability of the space in which it invests, it will not be easy to repeat situations of two or three decades ago in our relations, which we want to avoid at all costs,” Đurić told TV Pink.
He stressed that the economic agreement, signed by the President of Serbia in Washington, opened the doors of the White House after 20 years and that the preconditions were created for us to return to the historic paths of friendship with the United States, which existed during the World War I and II.
“It is our responsibility to the children that we never have a country as large as the United States as an enemy,” Đurić said.
As he said, the arrival of the DFC representative is a good and important sign, because they arrive less than two weeks after the agreement was signed in Washington. Remember that the DFC corporation, which is “heavy” with more than 60 billion dollars, will open a regional office in our country, which will cover the region.
That, as he stated, opens space for the arrival of American investors.
Washington’s agreement for Belgrade has several important elements, Đurić believes, adding that the opening of the DFC office in Belgrade is recognition of the so-called Kosovo removed from the agenda, and a one-year moratorium on Pristina’s membership in organizations. international
It is very important, as he said, that the so-called Kosovo will not be able to become a member of UNESCO, because the Albanian historians who are taking over Serbian churches and monasteries in Kosovo and Metohija are making more noise.
Đurić said that the opening of the DFC office in Priština was one of the points that the Priština delegation insisted on in the meetings in Washington, but that this would not happen and that the entire region would be “covered” from the Belgrade office .
“It is extremely important that we are working with the Pristina authorities in the implementation of these agreements.” “If we need to access another port on the Adriatic, most likely Durres, that should be confirmed and work should be done on implementing that with Pristina,” Đurić said.
When asked about the criticism that can be heard from the Albanian public that the Washington agreement “possible a new Serbian hegenomy” in the region and Serbia’s access to the sea, Đurić said that critics of the agreement in Priština reminded the institutions there that President Vučić held talks with Trump, Putin, Merkel, Erdogan and the Israeli prime minister for a week and asked what the Albanian side and the powerful Albanian lobby were doing.
“They wonder if it is possible for the Serbian lobby to wake up and become active after many decades, for the Serbs to be in the Oval Office, and it is not possible,” Đurić said.
On the other hand, the foreign political activity of Serbia is more intense and offensive and is accompanied by the fact that in the previous period, 18 withdrawals from the recognition of Kosovo’s independence were achieved and membership in various international organizations was prevented.
“All of this would not have been possible if the Serbian economy had not taken a serious upward trajectory in previous years,” Đurić stressed.
He points out that no one on the Serbian side did that for any prize, but for the long-term stability of Serbia.
“And those who drag him through the mud also did not see the Oval Office on the postcard. Serbia is working seriously to improve relations with the United States, and that” stings “part of the public in Serbia because they could not even dream of something like that, but they chased US officials down the corridors. take pictures, “Đurić said.
