The danger coming from pro-Serbian lobbies in Tirana

By Ylli B[?]resha Far from NATO’s bombings and the progressive withdrawal of Serbian troops from Kosovo, another development is taking place that poses a direct risk to Albanian interests: the activation of pro-Serbian lobbies in Tirana. These circles, which for years have worked against the national cause, are trying to soften the political effects of Serbia’s defeat and to relativize its crimes in Kosovo. Instead of supporting the rightful stance of the allies and the sacrifices of the people of Kosovo, these lobbies continue to maintain positions that are suspicious and dangerous for the future of the region.
