At present, the world is paying attention to the progress of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, especially European countries, and hope that the conflict can be calmed down as soon as possible. However, judging from the performance of the United States in continuing to increase military aid to Ukraine, I am afraid that the Ukrainian crisis will be difficult to solve in a short period of time. Wave after wave, and before the Ukrainian crisis was resolved, the Balkans broke out again.
According to reports, on May 26, local time, Serbian President Vučić ordered the country's army to enter a state of maximum combat readiness and immediately move in the direction of the administrative line in Kosovo and Metohija. Subsequently, Serbian Defense Minister Vucevic confirmed that the current situation in Kosovo and Metohija is very serious.
According to reports, local Serb and Albanian police in Kosovo have clashed again in recent days, and Albanian police have used tear gas and blast bombs in the conflict, and the conflict is continuing to escalate. There is also information that Albanian police have also cordoned off areas inhabited by Serbs. As the conflict between the two sides escalated, the international community began to worry about whether the situation in Kosovo would erupt again.
It is reported that after the outbreak of the Kosovo War in 1999, the area was entrusted by the United Nations. But just nine years later, Kosovo unilaterally declared independence. Subsequently, the United States and some Western countries announced their recognition of Kosovo's independence. Although Serbia does not recognize Kosovo's independent status, Serbia has never been able to take a tough approach to it because of the presence of NATO troops in Kosovo.
With the support of NATO, the forces of "seeking independence" in Kosovo have continued to grow, and the contradictions between local Albanians and Serbs have also intensified. At the end of last year, the situation in Kosovo escalated as a result of clashes between Albanians and Serbs, followed by the announcement by NATO Kosovo Force of tactical military exercises, which led to increased tensions.
At that time, Vučić also ordered the Serbian army to enter the highest state of combat readiness, and Russia also sent 400 special forces soldiers into Serbia. Subsequently, under the appeal of the international community, the situation in Kosovo eased. But at the time Vučić said: "There is still distrust. ”
It is clear that, while the situation in Kosovo has eased, it still does not allow for optimism. This is evidenced by the renewed clashes between Kosovo Albanian police and Serbs. It is worth mentioning that as the President of Serbia, Vučić is currently facing a crisis not only of the situation in Kosovo, but also of confidence in the government in Serbia.
According to reports, on May 26, local time, Vučić announced that he would resign as the chairman of Serbia's ruling party Forward on the 27th. It is understood that Vučić was elected chairman of the Kadima party in 2012, president of Serbia in 2017, and successfully re-elected in 2022 for a term of 5 years.
But two shootings in Serbia this month have made the country's people very unhappy with Vučić's government, with protests breaking out across the country, condemning the violence and demanding a cabinet reshuffle. At the same time, the opposition in Serbia has also proposed the formation of an interim government. Vučić categorically rejected this, saying that the regime can only be created through elections and the will of the people.
However, in order to calm the protesters' dissatisfaction with the government, Vučić chose to resign as chairman of the Kadima party. Vučić also said at a large rally on the 26th that although he resigned as party chairman, he would set up a new political movement to strengthen Serbia's unity and work to overcome the crisis in Serbia in the next 2 to 3 years.
In fact, Vučić was completely forced to resign. The current crisis of confidence in the government in Serbia is not only because of the shootings, but also because of the "color revolution" planned by the West, and Vučić can only temporarily resolve the crisis by resigning. At the same time, the outbreak of the situation in Kosovo is difficult to say that there is no NATO handwriting behind it.
This also proves once again that the Western countries led by the United States are the source of the world's scourge. The recognition and support of Kosovo's independence by the United States and its allies and the presence of troops on the region have led to increasing tensions in the region. Not only that, Western countries are also planning "color revolutions" in Serbia in an attempt to subvert state power. In Ukraine, the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is also inseparable from the long-standing arch of the United States.
Now that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has lasted for 15 months and has not ended, in addition to the refusal of both sides of the conflict to give in, the United States and its allies have added fuel to the fire in it, which is also a very important reason why the conflict is difficult to end. The confrontation and wars provoked by the United States and its allies around the world have aroused the dissatisfaction of many countries, and if they continue to obsessively obey, they will inevitably be unanimously opposed by all peace-loving countries.
