The meeting of the Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama and Hashim Thaci in Tirana represents a pinnacle of insolence by the Albanian politicians, Serbian Foreign Affairs Minister Ivica Dacic said last night.

Dacic’s statement came as a reaction to the topics of the meeting that included national unification of Albanians, abolishing the borders between Albania and Kosovo, as well as merging three southern Serbia’s municipalities with Kosovo.

While the Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic was preparing for his flight from Rome to Tirana and sending messages on the need to calm down the situation in the region, Kosovo President Hashim Thaci said from Tirana that “it is time to create an Albanian space without borders and to sensitize the rights of Presevo, Medvedja and Bujanovac to join Kosovo,” KoSSev portal reported.

Thaci sent this message after the meeting with Albanian Prime Minister, Edi Rama in Tirana yesterday.

The Russian Foreign Ministry said it cannot ignore "a series of steps taken by the current Albanian leadership in connection with the consolidation of the Albanian factor within the regional policy of Tirana," reported Radio Television of Serbia.

Albanian President Ilir Meta says that Tirana should do everything in its power so that the Dutch parliament's decision on visas does not cause a domino effect.

"The move by the Dutch Parliament is unprecedented, because as far as I know, previously has not been such a demand for the Western Balkans and our countries," he said.

"It goes without saying that this sounds an alarm and we need to send strong messages about organized crime, which is not a cause for concern only in the Netherlands, but in other countries like the United Kingdom," Meta pointed out.

Former head of the Coordination Center for Kosovo and Metohija, Nebojsa Covic told RTS he thinks there is a realistic danger of new conflicts because “Kosovo attempts to roundup its sovereignty.” According to him, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emanuel Macron want to overcome the problems in Kosovo and continue the dialogue, however that is not possible, Covic stressed.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has confirmed he would respond to the invitation by Germany and France and meet with Pristina representatives in Berlin on April 29.

Speaking in a press conference, after the meeting with Kosovo Serb political representatives Vucic said he has been invited to visit Berlin along with the Prime Minister Ana Brnabic, adding Hashim Thaci and Ramush Haradinaj are also invited.

The Commander of the US Bondsteel base in Kosovo Colonel Roy Macaraeg denied on Wednesday rumors that 500 Albanian soldiers would be positioned in the KFOR Nothing Hill camp in the north and said that 70-strong international force would remain there, the FoNet news agency reported.

The Colonel said that some 800 US, Polish, Turkish and Albanian soldiers were stationed in Bondsteel.

Assembly Committee on Rights and Interests of Communities and Return meeting was held last Friday in Pristina, TV Most reported.

After Albanian soldiers toured Mitrovica North couple of days ago and the announcement that several hundreds of them would be deployed to the north of Kosovo, Chairperson of the Serbian National Assembly Committee for Kosovo and Metohija Milovan Drecun said it represents an endangerment of the security of Serbian people there.

Drecun told TV Pink he has no confirmation that several hundreds of Albanian soldiers would be deployed as part of KFOR, however he did not exclude possibility of that to happen.

The presence of the Albanian army in the northern part of Mitrovica was "deliberate and planned," the Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has said. The goal was to intimidate the Serbs in Kosovo and provoke Serbia, President Vucic said on Friday.

Late on Thursday, the Serb List, a party representing Serbs in Kosovo, asked KFOR to explain the presence of several soldiers from Albania in the northern, Serb part of the ethnically divided town earlier in the day.
