Slovakia urges pro-EU policy on Balkans
Slovakia has expressed support for a pro European policy for the Balkans and has said that, in addition to not recognizing Kosovo, any new international conference on Bosnia will not solve the internal political issues that the Bosnia politicians cannot solve themselves.
“I am not a supporter of that idea because there is no readiness for an agreement inside Bosnia so that such agreement cannot be forced from the outside and I don’t think that it is good for the international community to divide itself on the question of Bosnia,” said Miroslav Lajcak, chief of Slovakia’s foreign policy and a former administrator of Bosnia.
Instead of new international conferences, Lajcak says that Brussels, Washington and Moscow should send Bosnia clear signals to “deal with questions of European integration and that is what we expect of you”.
Lajcak’s comments came after he met with high officials with the US State Department.
In a conversation to Hillary Clinton, Lajcak said that he told her that US should engage together with the EU on the issue of Balkans.
Lajcak said that Hillary Clinton is completing her team at the State Department that will deal with the question of Balkans.
In her recent Congressional testimony, Clinton said that US has unfinished business in the region.
Lajcak said that during his meeting with Clinton, they’ve spent substantial amount of time on the on the issue “how should the American engagement in the Balkans be”.
“Of course the key has to be a European perspective for the Balkans. I expect the EU to play the dominant position but to have a coordinating support from the US,” said Lajcak.
Lajcak says that the issue of naming a new envoy for the western Balkans is not the key issue. Rather, Lajcak says, defining policy, goals, vision and the strategy should be paramount.
“I clearly said that it is incorrect to name an envoy and then seek a definition what his role should be. First the policy then the instruments,” said Lajcak.
Lajcak also said that Slovakia will not recognize Kosovo.
“This government has no intentions to recognize Kosovo because for that there are two critical elements missing – fist is the agreement between Serbia and Kosovo and second is a unified position of the international community as expressed through the UN Security Council resolution,” said Lajcak.

Lajcak also said that Slovakia will not recognize Kosovo.
?This government has no intentions to recognize Kosovo because for that there are two critical elements missing – fist is the agreement between Serbia and Kosovo and second is a unified position of the international community as expressed through the UN Security Council resolution,? said Lajcak.
Thank you mr. Lajcek, smart man.

Then you are the only one, Bush is a a** hole.
Milaim.
You love USA you love George Bush,well Texas got it,s idiot back weeks ago so you are a little out of date.
Kanuk you are wrong that the US is going to be bankrupt soon. The US is already bankrupt and will continue to go deeper in debt. 12 trillion and counting. Thank you President’s Reagan,Bush Sr, Clinton and Bush Jr.
You are right in that Kosovo will be the last thing on anyone’s mind, especially considering what is happening in ‘Af-Pak’ but the Belgrade leadership has not cottoned onto that.
The Albanians need to cotton onto the fact that they are pawns and their elites are nothing but gangsters. Ordinary Albanians have no future in a Kosovo protectorate apart from selling junk metal and serving the US military.
kanuk said kosovo is serbia HOW….WHEN
abbie,
let’s talk in baby language.
Kosovo has been taken from Serbia without our approvel, so in fact Kosovo is Serbia, just because 57 countries say so doesn’t mean it’s right the other 140 say NO, and Serbia says NO, so it’s quite simple, Kosovo is Serbian.
to milaim:
we are a member of EU, so, if there is at least one EU member state, that does not recognize “independent” Kosovo, no one, neither France nor Germany, can demand the recognition from Serbia as a precondition for her membership.
I love when Serbians repeat like a parrot the same pathetic phrase, again and again, “Kosovo is Serbia”. LOL. I’m gonna buy a parrot and name it Veljkovic. I’ll teach him the favorite Serbian phrase above. I’m curious to find out how funny it will look like
veljkovic

Wow, can you arse lick with any more enthusiasm? You are pathetic. Little people arse licking Americans.
BTW, on your passports the word Kosovo is written. Why? You obviously can’t read it because you keep writing Kosova.
An arse licker and a moron.
abbie, just you wait and see.
gimi, teach your fellow men to read and wright, then the parrot.
@Veljkovic “read and wright”
Wright?!!! Lol, what does that mean?!
“Kosovo is Serbia” – said the parrot
Serbianna where are my comments?
gimi, surely repeating oneself is common sense and understandable in the example above. If someone stole something that belonged to you I’m sure you would repeat yourself until you got it back.
gimi.
I know a parrot that says Thaci is a war criminal.
KOSOVO IS SERBIA in case you forget.
They can’t handle the truth, that’s the problem, maybe even a little bit of bad consience, or trouble sleeping?
