Serbian Ambassador to the United States Marko Djuric has stated that for 11 years Kosovo has been refusing to form the Community of Serb-majority Municipalities and has been manipulating the international community, which, as he says, rewards Albin Kurti and his regime "for unilateral, provocative, and destabilizing moves with visa liberalization and participation in international forums."

"It has been more than 4,000 days since Pristina committed to establishing the Community of Serb-majority Municipalities by signing the Brussels Agreement - the only obligation that Pristina had to fulfill, and which it has not done to this day. Four. Thousand. Days," Djuric emphasized on the social network "X."

As he noted, this is 11 years of spinning, concealing the truth, and manipulating the international community.

"The community which proved to be oblivious not only to the false promises and lies regularly served to them, but also to the continuous attacks on Serbs – both physical and mental – and violations of their basic human rights. Unfortunately, the deterioration of the position of the Serb population in Kosovo and Metohija extends far beyond those dreadful 11 years – it has been escalating for decades now," Djuric stated.

Moreover, the ambassador emphasizes, "we have been witnessing its culmination since 2021 - since Albin Kurti and his ethnonationalist regime came into power."

"Over the past three years only, there were 499 ethnically motivated attacks on Serbs in the province. Attacks that were orchestrated and well-planned in Kurti’s vicious agenda. Apart from occasional oral condemnations by some international actors, Kurti and his regime are far from being sanctioned for their wrongdoings or failure to fulfill obligations. In fact, they are being rewarded for their unilateral, provocative and destabilizing moves with visa liberalization and participation in international fora," Djuric concluded.
