Former President of Serbia and leader of the opposition Socialdemocratic Party Boris Tadic assessed that the agreement on the normalization of relations between Serbia and Kosovo does not even need to be signed, because it has already been accepted as a platform for negotiations in which Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic is heavily involved.

“Vucic blatantly repeats that he did not sign the agreement. Our citizens must know that this agreement does not even have to be signed, because it has already been accepted as a platform for negotiations in which Vucic is heavily involved. Our history does not remember of such deceiving of citizens,” Tadic wrote on Twitter.

A marathon round of talks between representatives of Belgrade and Pristina was held on Saturday in Ohrid, during which the representatives of the two sides, President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic and Prime Minister of Kosovo Albin Kurti, accepted the implementation plan for the EU agreement, which they agreed on earlier.

EU High Representative for Foreign Policy and Security, Josep Borrell, said after the talks, which lasted 12 hours, that both sides will be bound by the agreement that will be part of their European path.

The leader of the SRCE movement, Zdravko Ponos, also commented on the negotiations.

“Bicycle – the front, European wheel of Serbia will turn only if the pedal is pedaled last, which represents the implementation of the Kosovo agreement. 35 is now the main chapter. Serbia’s progress on the European path is now inextricably conditioned by its cooperation around Kosovo. Negotiated by a statesman,” Ponos tweeted.

Neither Josep Borrell nor Albin Kurti nor Aleksandar Vucic will ask whether Serbia is for or against the EU agreement, according to the Ekoloski ustanak movement.

The citizens of Serbia will have their say on this in a referendum, said MP Aleksandar Jovanovic Cuta.

Leader of the People’s Party, Vuk Jeremic, noted that, if President Aleksandar Vucic accepts the Franco-German proposal, Serbia will receive as a “reward” the creation of the Greater Albania, a stronger suppression of freedom and democracy, as well as the lithium mining.

“In addition to all that, in a couple of years, the ‘Scholz-Macron 2’ plan would follow to resolve the ‘open issue of Bosnia and Herzegovina’, that is, to abolish the autonomy of Republika Srpska. In the meantime, Vucic would remain in power in Serbia, and would kick into fifth gear and trample us even harder than before, with the support of the West,” Jeremic has warned, criticizing the outcome of the talks.

Milica Djurdjevic-Stamenkovski, the leader of the Serbian Zavetnici Party opposed the acceptance of the agreement for Kosovo, whose Annex was agreed on Saturday in Ohrid. She estimated that the consequence of this would be the creation of the Greater Albania, as well as the opening of other secessionist demands in Serbia. Leader of the Movement of Free Citizens, Pavle Grbovic, pointed out that he is not in favour of the agreement because it is good, but because Serbia has no other alternative.

“It is neither wisdom nor practical policy to sign everything you are offered. If we lost our sovereignty in 1999, why new agreements and arrangements? If it were so, that process would have been completed a long time ago. Do not look at the position of the Serbian state with a defeatist approach, it can be very dangerous. This can open a pandora’s box that can open some other secessionist movements,” said Djurdjevic-Stamenkovski speaking to N1.

Grbovic believes that “if we reject the agreement, we will not get control over Kosovo, and we also rejected the European Union.”

“That kind of dilemma is false, it doesn’t exist. Another kind of dilemma is that no second step is offered – how will we cope with the serious economic consequences that such a decision would cause. I do not offer an alternative, nor does anyone offer one. It is true that the EU is not the whole world, but it is a significant part of the world in which Serbia plays a role,” he stressed.

According to him, the European agreement is the last war for the politics that Serbia led in the 1990s.

Leader of the Dveri movement Bosko Obradovic assessed at the gathering of the opposition in front of the Radio Television of Serbia (RTS) building that the only solution to the political crisis is the resignation of President Vucic. He called for a new gathering on Friday, March 24 at 12:44.

“We call on citizens to join forces of all those who are against this government and the Franco-German agreement to block all institutions in the country on Friday, March 24 at 12:44, starting from city and municipal administrations to the Government of Serbia. On that day, we will mark the anniversary of the start of the NATO bombing in all cities and municipalities where blockades will be held and call for an even larger national gathering around the demand that Vucic must leave,” he said.
