The Western Balkans "Quad" is an Anglo-American warning to Serbia that it must recognize Kosovo, impose sanctions on Russia and join NATO.

Serbia's only correct response is resolute adherence to its Constitution, international law, UN Security Council Resolution 1244, military neutrality, and the principled inadmissibility of unilateral and illegal sanctions.

There must not be given reason to think that any of the above-mentioned elements of the state strategy are temporary. The statements of individuals from the Government contrary to the national strategy leave the impression of disunity and vacillation, causing confusion and concern.

The tension surrounding the establishment of the CSM is not the result of Kurti's non-cooperation, but rather the Anglo-American tactics of extorting Serbia's recognition and agreement with the so-called Kosovo membership in the UN. The leaders of certain NATO members do not want Serbia and the Serbs in Kosovo. If it weren't for that, around 230,000 expelled Serbs and other non-Albanians would have long since returned freely and safely to their homes and estates in Kosovo.

Kurti is an American proxy player in the geostrategic scenario of the fragmentation of the Serbs and Serbia, as were all his predecessors.

Investments, donations, a better life, membership "at your fingertips", and promises of certificates "for courage" and "visionary" are part of the methods of getting involved in solutions harmful to Serbia and the Serbs.

These days, EU diplomats, in their not particularly inventive offensive to charm the citizens of Serbia do not leave our TV screens. There is no price they would not pay, no promises they would not make if only the people would believe that it is best for Serbia to listen to the US/NATO/EU.

Fortunately, people remember. It is not too rich or powerful to argue, but neither too poor to suffer humiliation.
