Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic who is in New York for a session of the United Nations General Assembly, said on Sept. 22 that Kosovo would be the most important part of his address and that he would "recall the words spoken by our representatives before the U.N. in 1999" so everyone could remember.
Speaking on developments in Kosovo, Vucic told reporters that the U.N.'s resolution did not give Pristina the right to have armed forces, even though it had created a security force and military.
"Just keep calm, be patient. I will be speaking to, in real life, the most important officials -- American officials. When we tell them, 'Why are you trampling Resolution 1244,' the West, the Turks and everyone in NATO who is arming them replies that the situation changed when they recognized Kosovo as independent," Vucic said.
He went on to say that the Americans, British and Turks were training Kosovo forces and that "this is not something that can jeopardize the Army of Serbia, but there is no doubt that it can threaten the remaining Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija."
