How Kurti discovered America

Convincing Serbia to give up Kosovo and Metohija is entering a new dramatic phase, some think the final one, but that battle actually just continues, after 1999, now with the guards down again and without the gloves.

Everything we can hear these days from the Albanian leaders in Pristina, led by Albin Kurti and Western emissaries, as well as from some Western-oriented Serbs, in various forms, boils down to one conclusion - Kosovo is Serbia.

That is right, it sounds paradoxical, but their attitudes, threats and blackmail, with which they demand that the Serbs recognize Kosovo as a state, let it into the UN, start good-neighborly relations  as they euphemistically formulate it, ultimately require the Serbian renunciation of Kosovo. This further means that despite everything, today, in November 2022, Kosovo is essentially Serbian, at least as much as the Albanians have power over it with their population, support of great mentors, money from crimes, through manipulation of the role of the victim and other historical falsifications.

"There can be no lasting peace and stability on the European soil, without Russia renouncing Ukraine, and Serbia renouncing Kosovo," the president of the Kosovo Parliament and one of the leaders of Self-Determination, Glauk Konjufca said a few days ago, and thus fully confirmed what bothers Albanians.
Konjufca once again abused the war in Ukraine in order to "mark" the Serbs with a black ink, but above all he revealed the frustration of Pristina due to the fact that Serbia has not "yet" renounced Kosovo. And Kurti, Konjufca and others in Pristina know what that means.

As long as that is the case, they are not a state, no matter how much they are lied to in Berlin and London that they are. And all the RKS license plates, fake democracy, corrupt courts, and zombie police are for nothing. These are all Potemkin villages of one big lie, from which the yellow-blue facade with EU stars has largely fallen, and now its monstrous face can be seen even from Washington.
No fig leaf can hide that shame anymore.

That is why Albin Kurti chooses neither the place nor the time to threaten the Serbs, and at the same time refuses to obey those who created him. Well, it doesn't matter if he is in Pristina, Berlin or Paris, he proudly shows his evil intention. He decided to break the back of the Serbs and force them to kneel at his feet, and since they do not agree to this, in acts of insolence and anger, the Kosovo PM kicks Escobar, Hovenier, and even Blinken himself in the shin. And while Washington slowly raises its eyebrows, taken aback by Pristina's insolence, Berlin caresses Kurti on the head and still has unlimited understanding and patience for him.

It's not from yesterday. Long ago, the Albanians got courage in Kosovo. Meanwhile, convinced that their republic is a done deal, they have made many wrong moves in the past few years. Haradinaj's 100 percent tax and Kurti's reciprocity are the best indicators of how a hypertrophied ego leads further into irrationality and danger.

Kurti is now going all the way, he wants to conquer the north of Kosovo with weapons, and that will be a critical point in his political career. The trap he falls into by believing in his "super power". Of course, the West bears the ultimate responsibility for Kurti thinking he is superman. They let him play around so much, that he completely lost a realistic attitude towards his role and importance. Even now it is difficult to restrain a man who is formally addressing himself.

We have seen how strong the self-deception of Kurti and his partners is even now after the Serbs left Pristina's institutions. The understanding of this completely justified move by the Serbs, which was forced by the actions of Pristina, expressed by President Vucic and official Belgrade, Kurti, Osmani and the team present as "crown proof" that Serbia is trying to undermine Kosovo's independence. Good morning Columbus, of course Serbia is doing everything to prove that Kosovo is not and cannot be a state.

However, the Serbs and Serbia do not want conflicts. There is a difference. In search of a sustainable solution, not the one imposed by Kurti, the Serbs act calmly and reasonably. They present the facts and ask relevant questions. One of them is – when will the obligations from the Brussels Agreement start applying to the other participants in the dialogue (Albanians, EU) like they have applied to the Serbs?

There is no answer for now, and it is uncertain whether there will be one at all.
In such circumstances, as expected, Kurti throws out everything he has prepared from his arsenal of insults and lies against the Serbs and Serbia, even in Paris the other day. Macron also had the opportunity to hear live Kurti's favorite "song” saying the Serbs in northern Kosovo are mostly criminals and that's why he prepared such special police.

In addition, while Kurti's tour continues, and will continue until someone from the "switchboard" turns off his amplifier, the sleepy Borrell and Lajcak are still weighing the new circumstances, which threaten to bring the situation to serious tension on November 21, when Pristina plans to start fining the Serbs because of the vehicle license plates. At the end of the day, if none of those whose job it is to do so stop the deranged Albin, the Serbs will have to wish him a "good night". They are ready for it.

At the same time, an intellectual war on the subject of "what to do with Kosovo" is slowly igniting in Belgrade. Professional and media analyses, political fights, and other activities of special action groups are becoming more common.

Mostly it is short-range intellectual artillery, verbal firecrackers, caps and the occasional smoke bomb. Too soon old, too late smart.

And while most of it can be classified as free belief, some things are still "ear-splitting". It is not appropriate to refer to the verses of the poet Rakic's "Gazimestan" (a poem commemorating the Battle of Kosovo from 1389) in the same sentence and then renounce Kosovo. That is not political realism, that is just a shame. Kosovo does not belong to St. Protic, nor Garic, nor Albin Kurti and Vjosa Osmani. Kosovo cannot be measured for sale to one who gives the euro-gold coin more. That deed belongs to those who came before us and those who are yet to come.

I do not mean to be pathetic, but the only owners of Kosovo are all those known and unknown who have left their bones there over the centuries defending what we temporarily preserve today, so that the next generations will continue to do the same - throughout eternity. How can anyone expect the Serbs to put Kosovo up for sale or to give it up out of fear, pressure and blackmail? No matter who we are today, we should not lie to ourselves that we are the same people as Sindjelic, Misic and the rest of our glorious ancestors were.

We are far from those heroes, but we still know something. We know what we must not do.
