GSerbian President Branko Ceqen has said it is difficult to predict Serbia’s new government’s attitudes towards Kosovo, stressing that it must have a rational approach in relation to Pristina.
In an interview for Klan Kosovo, he has said decades of propaganda against Kosovo and Albanians have influenced the creation of a high percentage of nationalist voters in Serbia.
The new government should eventually have a rational attitude towards Kosovo. That is because neither Serbia nor Kosovo will go anywhere without resolving their relations in any way, Ceqen has declared.
He has estimated that new political developments in Serbia have created room for more rational discussions, expressing expectations that representatives of Kosovo and Serbia communicate in a normal manner.
Therefore, it is up to all governments in the Balkans, but in this case particularly from the governments of Kosovo and Serbia to exploit this space, this new atmosphere and perhaps really start a process that makes sense, he has told Klan Kosovo.
Ceqen has stressed that for the progress of relations, both sides must be ready without using foreign policy for the interests of domestic political games.
