Political structures in Balkans funding radical Islamists (Vesti)

The expert analysts for military and political affairs Aleksandar Radić claims that political structures in Balkans, particularly in B&H, Kosovo and in Raška region (Serbia proper) are flirting with extreme Islamic groups, and in most of cases they are the main funders and aiders of radical Islamists.

“There are hot spots in Balkans ever since 1992 and the war in B&H, which are frozen and only one trigger would be sufficient to revive them again,” Radić said to ‘Pres Republika Srpska’.

Radić said that in B&H, Kosovo and particularly in Raška region there is a dominant stream which had integrated its political and religious interests and is proficiently managing extremists they created themselves.

“The best example is the group of Muamer Zukorlić which doesn’t allow to get compromised, however they are presenting to their supports in a very elegant manner the idea which is a separatist  and extremist one, and on the other side they are very careful not to get involved in conflict with authorities,” stressed Radić.

Radić described as hotbeds certain circles in Novi Pazar, Sarajevo and their organizations which are promoting an idea of radical Islam where one could always find connection between political and religious interest, but the organized crime as well.

“Flow of money from big companies, over financing certain individuals, donations, like in cases during the war in B&H, has contributed to situation that even today there are black funds in the region for financing terrorist organizations and individuals,” concluded Radić.
