Belgrade – The Kosovo issue is topical, although in the Serbian media and in society is carried out marginalization, demonization, astigmatism, and the criminalization of Kosovo theme. This is corroborated by the fact that the main expectations of the West from the Belgrade are concerning the issue of Kosovo, and that all other topics are “out”, it was said yesterday in the debate “Whether Belgrade and Serbs from Kosovo speak the same language”, which was organized in Belgrade Media Centre by the Serbian national forum of Gracanica.
In addition to leading people in this forum Aleksandar Djikic, Aleksandar Corcov and Aleksandar Stojanovic, the meeting was attended by the President of the Serbian Resistance Movement Momcilo Trajkovic, publicists Djordje Vukadinovic and Aleksandar Pavic, a former adviser to Vojislav Kostunica, Aleksandar Simic, a professor at the University of Pristina relocated to Mitrovica Dejan Mirovic, a member of SRS (Serbian Radical Party)…
– We do not understand the language of Belgrade, which silently watch what happens to the property of Serbia in Kosovo and Metohija, while the government borrows, when they say we will be better in an independent Kosovo state, when you do not solve the problem of 250,000 refugees, and it swears by the European Values and respect for human rights. We cannot survive without Belgrade, but the one which understand us. This Belgrade thinks it can do without us and without KiM – said Aleksandar Djikic, president of SNF.
At the debate were issued conflicting reviews about whether the current policy on Kosovo of the Serbian government capitulates or not, as well as different perceptions of announced platform for Kosovo of the Serbian President, Tomislav Nikolic, with a reminder that Nikolic yet in 2012 promised Russians he would return the negotiations to the UN. Public opinion in Serbia, as said yesterday, is what hampers faster recognition of Kosovo’s independence.
Cover-up
Djordje Vukadinovic pointed out that the current government of the SNS, as the previous DS “is covering up the results of public opinion polls showing that a majority of the citizens of Serbia are against barter – EU for Kosovo, although half supports European integration”. According to the NSPM (New Serbian Political Thought), against the “trade” Kosovo for EU is 65.5 per cent of the respondents.
