"There is no doubt that in the first place, and above all, Serbia must recognize this irreversible reality, and it is really unfortunate that instead of concrete progress in dialogue towards mutual recognition and final reconciliation with the past, today we are witnessing Serbia's theatrical military manoeuvres on the border with the sovereign state of Kosovo", Rama said.
According to him, "these manoeuvres do not actually protect the Serbs in the north of Kosovo, as the official Belgrade leadership claims, with the support of some ghosts of generals of the defeated army on the battlefield, more than 20 years ago, who seems to have come out of the grave claiming to protect the integrity and the security of Serbian citizens in Kosovo".
