President of Kosovo: Serbia wants to divide Kosovo using Ukraine as an example

Serbia is sending weapons and military to northern Kosovo with the aim of dividing the country, as stated by the President of Kosovo, Hashim Thaçi, in an interview with Deutsche Welle.

"We know that Serbia has a plan for Kosovo’s division and that Belgrade is arming Serbs in the north," he said. He also noted that he has evidence that Serbia is sending weapons there as well as people, both civilian and military.

Thaçi added that Russians are actively helping Serbia by preparing paramilitary units.

"Serbia is following Russia’s style and methods in Ukraine. There are Russians there who work closely with Belgrade. They do not wear uniforms, but they are well armed and managed directly from Belgrade," the President said.

He added he has already expressed his concerns to Brussels, but the EU is silent for now.

Thaçi also spoke of the incident in which a propaganda train that had the slogan "Kosovo is Serbia," traveled from Belgrade to the north of Kosovo. The President called this move a provocation that could have led to an armed conflict if the train traveled a little further. According to him, there could have been military personnel and weapons on the train.
