Russia’s permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, believes that Kosovo is the main source of instability in the Balkan region.
Speaking at a meeting of the UN Security Council, the diplomat said that the Kosovo authorities launched a series of provocations against Serbia and the Serbs inhabiting the autonomous province.
In addition, violating the Central European Free Trade Agreement, Kosovo announced the imposition of duties against goods from Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina in the amount of 100%.
Creating an army in Kosovo is grossly violating the provisions of UN Security Council Resolution 1244, said Nebenzya.
The United States and NATO in every way indulge Kosovo’s actions, which undermine the stability of the region.
“We do not accept the line of the Western sponsors of Pristina to exclude the Kosovo issue from the agenda of the UN Security Council. Behind the words: “recently discussed,” “there is nothing to discuss,” “the situation is calm,” “why so often?” it seeks to hide from the international community the truth about the real situation in the province and about backstage games around Kosovo. The same applies to calls for a strategic assessment, ”the diplomat outlined the position of the Russian Federation.
