Albin Kurti's aggressive, inciting and militant rhetoric does not serve to create a peaceful and safe environment for all people living in Kosovo and Metohija, instead its direct goal is to create tensions and destabilize the situation in this area, thje director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, Petar Petkovic, has said.

"For days now, we have been witnesses to the fact that Kurti and other politicians in Pristina are using the crisis in Ukraine to realize their Greater Albania ideas, collect political points using the trouble that has befallen the whole world, but also trying to push through by the back door membership in numerous international organizations and transform their security forces into an army," Petkovic said in a statement.

While Belgrade, the Serb people in the province and the Serbian List, are making appeals in favor of reason, peace, tolerance and refraining from words and deeds that could result in destabilization of sensitive conditions in Kosovo and Metohija, Kurti and his associates are using every an opportunity for provocations and false accusations against Serbs.

It is precisely the leaders of the so-called KLA ("Kosovo Liberation Army") that are being prosecuted for most heinous war crimes committed against Serbs, so Pristina's policy of fallacies and tendentious behavior is well known to everyone, Petkovic said.

The director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija stressed that Pristina has no place in any international organization, because it does not belong there under international law.

"What does belongs to it is the dialogue with Belgrade, as well as implementation of all agreements signed so far. But, as Pristina is used to creating tensions and undermining peace, it is clear why right now, during a severe crisis in Eastern Europe, but also in the world, Albanian politicians have launched dangerous and malicious initiatives and attempts to join international organizations," said Petkovic.

Instead of such irresponsible moves, it would be better for Kurti and his associates to provide economic stability for citizens, basic foodstuffs, and curb their prices, because that is what the people expect, Petkovic concluded.
