“The Albanians in Kosovo have said that tonight they will launch an offensive against the northern regions of Kosovo and Metohija, where the majority of the Serb population lives. Naturally, Belgrade is worried.”

According to her, the equipment was noticed, which is pulled together by the Albanians to the border of the northern part of Kosovo.

“I think that there will be a big movement of the Serbian people, which will reach out to the border of the region, and that the European bodies of the EU and Russian diplomacy should react. Although, of course, we know that in recent decades the Serbs have been treated in the same way that Europe treats Russia today. Serbophobia and Russophobia were the main directions of the entire policy of Europe,” she added.

I think it would be great if the Security Council could be convened and called on both sides to show restraint. I cannot understand what the Kosovars are trying to do there. They provoke the Serbs, this is understandable,” Dzhabarov said in a conversation with RT.
