Cerić: Bosnian Serbs are not to blame for Belgrade's failures in Kosovo

(Patria) - The former reisu-l-ulema of the Islamic Community in BiH told Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dačić that Bosnian Serbs are not to blame for Belgrade's failures in Kosovo, and that Serbia should leave Bosnia alone.

"It is time, Dačić, to leave Bosnia alone and to free Bosnian Serbs in it from blame for Kosovo. Bosnian Serbs are not to blame for Belgrade's failures regarding Kosovo. Nor is Bosnia in any way responsible for your frustrations regarding Kosovo, which has the right to be independent and free," wrote Cerić in an op-ed titled "Dačić sings everywhere except in Kosovo."

The agreement on a joint foreign policy of Albania and Kosovo was assessed by Dačić during today's meeting of foreign ministers within the framework of the Southeast European Cooperation Process (SEECP) in Sarajevo as the creation of a Greater Albania.

"What more needs to be drawn for someone not to want to see that it is about the creation of a Greater Albania? Imagine if Serbia now signed such an agreement with the Republika Srpska? Would that then be a violation of the territorial integrity of Bosnia and Herzegovina or of some interests?" said Dačić.

Ceric in the text asks whether political leaders in Serbia have left Bosnia as "the only quicksand for salvation from a complete and shameful defeat in Kosovo?"
