Ljubljana, 25 August 2017 (MIA) - Slovenian Delo newspaper writes that the 
Macedonian - Serbian diplomatic spat could cause the next European crisis. Delo 
writes that the withdrawal of Serbian diplomats from Macedonia is a form of 
pressure on Macedonia over its vote on Kosovo's UNESCO membership.

Delo points out that Macedonia and Serbia view the Kosovo issue differently, 
with the Albanian community in Macedonia being involved in decision making on 
domestic and foreign policy, while Serbia wants to annex Kosovo and delineate 
what belongs to the Serbs and what to the Albanians. "Serbia, as the 
traditional Russian ally in the Balkans, is probably trying to help Moscow in 
preventing the admission of the entire region into NATO and the European Union. 
After the failed coup attempt in Montenegro, that was meant to prevent its NATO 
accession, now the next Russian target is Macedonia". Delo writes.

According to the Slovenian newspaper, Macedonia is intensifying its 
relationship with the United States aiming to join NATO in 2018.cc/14:52
