Brnabic: I expect Brussels and Washington to put pressure on Pristina to form the CSM as soon as possible

I expect the international community, first of all from Brussels, but then also from Washington, to put pressure on Pristina to start implementing the Brussels Agreement as soon as possible, which means establishing the Community of Serb-majority Municipalities, Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic told RTS.

As she said, Belgrade received all assurances from the US Special Envoy, Gabriel Escobar, that they would do it in the shortest possible time.

"Serbs from the Kosovo and Metohija region are only heard in Brussels and Washington when they are at the barricades, unfortunately. And even then, not very well. The Serbs are at the barricades because they demand basic human rights, nothing more. The Serbs from the Kosovo and Metohija region left the institutions because they demanded honoring Brussels Agreement after ten years. After all, they were in those institutions thanks to the Brussels Agreement. When Kurti says that there is no Brussels Agreement for him, then I don't know why Serbs not being in the institutions is a problem," Brnabic said.

She also stated that she was deeply disappointed with the concept of human rights in Brussels, Washington, London…

"Vucic is in daily contact with the Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija, and I can understand that they are fed up with everything and have no confidence in the representatives of the international community. They just want the agreement from 2013 to be implemented. The Serbs are at the barricades to defend and protect the Brussels Agreement, and to remind Brussels of it," Brnabic said.

The Prime Minister of Serbia reminded that Albin Kurti said that there was no Brussels Agreement in the middle of Berlin and that no one reacted to that.

She stated that she was afraid of escalation but also said Serbia would do everything to preserve peace.

Asked what her assessment of the security situation was, Brnabic said that the situation was brought to the brink of conflict.

The Prime Minister of Serbia also pointed out that since KFOR had been present in Kosovo, 312 settlements had been completely ethnically cleansed, which, as she stated, was contrary to what KFOR's role should be, which was to ensure Serbs and non-Albanians in Kosovo, and multi-ethnicity.
