Vucic about Kosovo becoming associated member: NATO showed it worked with Pristina all the time
He stressed that Serbia will live either way, and that they do not understand that for us Serbs, freedom is greater and more important than the air
President Aleksandar Vucic said in Kursumlija that on Sunday, on the anniversary of the start of the NATO bombing of Serbia, so-called Kosovo received the status of an associated member of NATO, and that it doesn't mean anything special because the situation was essentially the same until now, but it does show that they worked as a coordinated team all the time and only pretended to be "good cop-bad cop."

"They like to do things on anniversaries, dates are important to them. That's why they forced those wretched (politicians) of ours to deliver Milosevic on Vidovdan (St. Vitus Day). That's why today (Sunday) they made a decision to make Pristina an associated member of the NATO parliamentary assembly. That's why they will again choose a special day when they will allow them to join the Council of Europe. And all of this while supposedly sanctioning Pristina," Vucic said in response to a journalist's question about NATO's behavior.
You can imagine what sanctions those are where they (Pristina) are given visa liberalization, added Vucic.
"An associated member of the NATO parliamentary assembly, that's one step higher than what they have been until now. Membership in the Council of Europe - what heavy sanctions. And that just shows you that they worked all the time as a cohesive team, that they worked all the time together and that they were just playing good cop-bad cop and nothing more than that. No matter how small we are, no matter how smart we aren't, how smart they are, we are still not idiots," said Vucic.
He stressed that Serbia will live either way, and that they do not understand that for us Serbs, freedom is greater and more important than the air.
"Greater and more important than anything. And that we will always be able to preserve and defend our people's freedom, and the sky and the land of our Serbia," said Vucic.
