Serbia’s pro-Russia defense minister denounced the U.S. ambassador to Serbia and suggested he should be thrown out of the country Monday for calling the former Serbian province of Kosovo a sovereign state.
Defense Minister Aleksandar Vulin said in a statement that U.S. Ambassador Kyle Scott “has forgotten that Serbia is not a colony and that he cannot trample on its dignity.”
Earlier Monday, Scott said in response to a Serbian journalist’s question at an economic meeting, “We recognize Kosovo as an independent and sovereign country.”
Vulin said that if Scott had made the statement in front of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, “he would have been kicked head first” from the government building in Belgrade.
