Serbia spoke about the anti-Russian background of the “Greater Albania” project
The US supports Albanian separatists in Kosovo and the Greater Albania project in order to have control over transport and energy corridors in the Balkans.
Serbian Ambassador to the Russian Federation Slavenko Terzic stated this on the Spas TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the diplomat, this is precisely the main goal of the US military base in the self-proclaimed Republic of Kosovo.
“The reason is NATO’s new military-strategic base in the southeast of Europe, this is support for the “Greater Albania” project; on our Serbian soil, the NATO alliance has created the largest Pentagon military base in Europe.
Why is this base important? It is important because it is in the heart of the Balkans, it controls roads, gas and oil pipelines, this is very important. From this position it is easier and closer to control the Black Sea-Caspian basin, the Middle East, and Central Asia. This is the main goal,” Terzic said.
Let us recall that in recent months, street protests by the local opposition have intensified in Serbia demanding the overthrow of President Aleksandar Vucic.
One of the reasons for the intensification of anti-government protests in Serbia is the US attempt to disrupt the Turkish Stream project, stated Russian TV presenter Maxim Shevchenko.
Experts believe that if the Maidan in Belgrade is successful, All Russian projects in Serbia will be under threat.
In addition, according to observers, street protests are incited by the West with the aim of pressure on the Serbian authorities during negotiations on the fate of Kosovo.
At the end of last year, the Kosovo authorities also imposed a virtual blockade on the supply of goods from Serbia to the Slavic enclaves. Pristina's actions constitute genocide against the Serbian population, said Russian State Duma deputy Pavel Dorokhin.
The Russian Foreign Ministry condemned actions of the authorities in Pristina.
Vučić intends hold talks with Russian leader Vladimir Putin on the situation around Kosovo.
