In the document "Vision for relations with Albania and Kosovo", Biden talks 
about his plans for future relations in the Balkans and states that as a 
senator he defended the interests of the so-called Kosovo when the focus of the 
world was elsewhere and supported its independence which he says is an 
irreversible process. 

He pledged to work in partnership with the European Union to revitalize the 
dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, and will insist that justice for war 
crimes be administered without fear and demand full and swift responsibility 
for the missing, including the Bytyqi brothers. 

It should be reiterated that Biden recently stated that he did not know the 
details of the agreement between Belgrade and Pristina in Washington, but that 
he believed that the agreement would strengthen the independence of the 
so-called Kosovo. 

On the other hand, Joe Biden's "Vision of American Relations with 
Bosnia-Herzegovina" states that he will "forever be against hatred, and that he 
will support the sovereignty, territorial integrity and multiethnic character 
of Bosnia and Herzegovina." 

The introductory part of the document first lists what Biden has done for 
Bosnia and Herzegovina so far. 

It points out that when violence erupted in the Balkans in the 1990s, as a 
senator he "played a key role in the Senate's efforts to stop the genocide in 
Bosnia-Herzegovina" and that "despite widespread opposition to interventions in 
the region, he argued that the United States could not stand aside while 
innocent civilians were raped, killed and buried in mass graves". 

Dimitrija Milić from NGO "Novi treci put" sees the reason for publishing these 
documents in the complicated status of BiH and the so-called Kosovo. 

"Plans for Kosovo and BiH have been announced, because both countries have a 
complicated status. For that reason, Biden's headquarters has published its 
views on these issues and what can be expected from the policy towards them 
when he comes to power," he said. 

When asked why the plans for Serbia and other countries in the region have not 
been published yet, Milic says that it is because Biden's headquarters views 
that country as stable. 

"They consider other countries in the region stable. Biden's team believes that 
all those countries, including Serbia, should be part of the EU and NATO. 
According to them, that is the best way to reconcile the region," Milic 
concluded. 

It should be reminded that the magazine "Wall Street International" published 
an article about 750.000 American citizens of Serbian origin, who live in key 
and crucially important states for the upcoming elections in the USA. 

They add that Serbs, who have not forgotten Biden's support for the bombing of 
Yugoslavia, could be the decisive factor in the November presidential elections.
