🇽🇰 has repeatedly warned the int'l community about Serbia's true reasons for insisting on ASMM's formation. ASMM was never intended to integrate local Serbs into Kosova, but as Belgrade's Trojan Horse to make the country dysfunctional, thus preparing the way for partition. 1/10

24 years today from the massacre of 45 Albanian civilians by Serbian forces in Reçak. We remember & honor all the victims of this inhumane act. Such a crime can't be forgotten or erased from history. Those responsible must face justice. Criminals & war crimes can't be amnestied.

3/3 “Progressing” towards EU Integration with this attitude is not only inacceptable, but detrimental for all the values EU stands for. Same holds for those who still believe, Open Balkan is an initiative worth considering.

Spoke today shortly to @AJBalkans about the "non-paper" uncovering the true reasons behind Serbia's insisting on ASMM, their destructive approach in the dialogue process, our commitment towards rule of law & many more. Full statements in the link below:

Implementation of the Energy Roadmap is a matter of urgency. Non-payment incentivizes criminal activity at the cost of taxpayers & the environment. 🇽🇰 has continuously played a constructive role & has implemented all obligations. We expect & demand the same from the other side.

2/3 All this while also Vucic was present in the stands. The whole state apparatus is built in Serbia for media, sports, arts, culture, science to be put to use for propaganda means and to incite violence, terror, tensions and war.

2/3 This exposes two crucial facts, there will be an application from Kosovo to join NATO, and Russia (not EU) will be the Serbian answer...

EU & Serbia presented nothing but insisted on accomodating Serbia's request to focus only on ASMM. Any alternative reporting is a clear & intentional distortion of the truth.

d. These competencies will eventually lead to a new Rep. Srpska w/ the aim of territorial separation btw. Albanian & Serb territories. This will then force the int'l community to recognize the existence of two national entities in Kosovo, and absolute autonomy in ASMM areas. 7/10
