Mustafa: Belgrade negotiates with Pristina because it needs EU (Bota Sot)

The leader of the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), Isa Mustafa said for the Austrian daily, Die Presse, that the entire world knows that Serbia committed genocide against the Albanian population in Kosovo during 1990 to 1999, massacring over 12,000 civilians, and expelling about one million Albanians. He noted that 1,800 still remain missing. The leader of the opposition was suspicious of the new Government of Serbia’s readiness to find a solution in its negotiations with Kosovo. “We were the first opposition party to support this issue. All issues can be resolved through dialogue. On the other hand, there is no sufficient will in Belgrade to find a solution,” said Mustafa. “To us, integration of the Serb community in our society is an important part of this dialogue. Belgrade representatives sit at these discussions because they need the EU integration process,” said Mustafa. He welcomed the statements of the recently elected Prime Minister in Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, that his party is interested in continuing with the dialogue and implementing the agreements. He hoped that these promises were not just words.
