RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR IN BELGRADE: ARE THERE NO SERBS HERE?

 

RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR IN BELGRADE: ARE THERE NO SERBS HERE? IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO CARES ABOUT THE DESTINY OF THE SERBIAN PEOPLE IN KOSOVO?

Do you think Kontuzin's speech would instigate some sense of shame in Serbian politicians?

Russian ambassador in Belgrade left the Security Forum, unsatisfied with the debate. Konuzin criticized the other participants, because nobody on the panel raised the issue of Kosovo’s customs officials headed for the checkpoints of Brnjak and Jarinje, which is about to be disscused on UN Security Council.

“I’m confused. NATO, KFOR and EULEX are planning to bring Kosovars customs officers at the crossings in Northern Kosovo, and thus violate their mandate, Resolution 1244 and UN Security Council decision from 2008, and yet the audience did not even raise one question about it. Are there any Serbs in this room, do you care about the destiny of your compatriots?”, asked the Konuzin.

Reminding the audience, that in a few hours, the UN Security Council will take up this issue, Konuzin said that Russia, together with the head of the Serbian diplomacy, will be there, defending the interests of Serbia.

“NATO and EU will be against your national interests, but I have an impression that you do not care,” said the Russian ambassador.

Konuzin commented on the criticisms made during the debate, in which it was pointed out that Russia works only on the basis of interest.

“Tell me which interests Russian volunteers had when they came to fight with you?” asked Konuzin.

“Russia has interests. And who doesn’t? We invest in your country, although some Serbs want to put your country under control. We have interests, but our interests overlap with yours,” said a Russian ambassador.

Ambassador’s speech was interupted by the panel’s moderator Ivan Vejovda, and after a brief discussion the Russian ambassador turned to the audience and asked if he could continue to talk.

After the audience refused it, he demonstratively left the hall.

Well I feel ashamed...Why do Serbs always wait for Russia to 'save' or 'defend' them, when our own government does no such thing?
