Serbia

What kind of dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina should we support and how 
to avoid the danger of Serbia and the so-called Kosovo move further away?

Alternative for Germany MP, Jens Kestner, posed this question in the Bundestag 
yesterday. 

"We must bring Serbia, of which, in my opinion, Kosovo is still an integral 
part, closer to us, instead of looking for what separates us! If you constantly 
claim to oppose the change of borders, anywhere in the world, do we have the 
right to overlook the fact that we ourselves have already participated in the 
illegal change of borders in that region! Today, Serbia continues to 
justifiably point to this contradiction", Kestner said at a session debating 
the proposal of Chancellor Angela Merkel's government to extend the KFOR 
mission for Bundeswehr soldiers until June 30, 2022. 

According to that proposal, the so-called A maximum of 400 German soldiers can 
be deployed in Kosovo. 

Kestner also stated that if there is not enough courage to revise German policy 
towards the Western Balkans and to truly return to the full ​​respect for 
international law by some kind of reintegration of Kosovo into Serbia, he 
believes that innovative solutions should not be rejected a priori, hiding 
behind the principle of immutability of boundaries. 

"I call on political actors in Germany to think seriously about this topic, so 
that by solving one problem we would not create new ones and force Serbia, as a 
key country in the region, to look for collaborators to find a just solution on 
another side," the AfD MP said. 

The representative of the German left "Die Linke" Zaklin Nastic also called for 
the withdrawal of German troops from Kosovo yesterday, reminding colleagues in 
parliament that "there is a network of organized crime in Kosovo, whose 
masterminds are also responsible for the murder of Serbian leader Oliver 
Ivanovic." 

Stressing that her party resolutely rejects the proposal to extend KFOR's 
mandate, Nastic said that "by giving the green light to that government 
proposal, the members of the Bundestag are helping the criminal network in 
Kosovo to continue to survive." 

The head of the Green Party Manuel Saracin said that he considered the debate 
on this topic pointless, since, as he said, Belgrade and Pristina agree that 
"KFOR must remain in Kosovo." 

According to the government's explanation in Berlin, the extension of the KFOR 
mission is requested "due to the fact that, although peaceful and stable, the 
situation in Kosovo still carries the potential for escalation of the conflict, 
since normalization of relations with Serbia is not in sight."
