Serbian State Secretary for Kosovo-Metohija Oliver Ivanovic said on Friday that the statement of Albanian Prime Minister Sali Berisha, who said that Albanians are more than ever interested in working on national reunification, constitutes a clear message that the idea of a 'greater Albania' has not been extinguished.
During a promotion of a joint primer of Albania and Kosovo in Prizren, southern Kosovo, on Friday, Berisha said that Albanians are now interested more than ever before in participating in the project aimed at national reunification through a major European project.
The meeting was attended by Kosovo President Atifete Jahjaga and Prime Minister Hasim Taci.
In an interview for the International Radio of Serbia, Ivanovic said that every official meeting between Tirana and Pristina is streaked with the political idea of national reunification.
The idea is, at least declaratively, unacceptable for entire Europe and the world and at the same time represents serious aspirations concerning a part of the Serbian territory, which is why the event could be met with very severe reactions, not only by Belgrade, Ivanovic said.
According to him, nobody in Serbia has anything against mutual cultural cooperation of Albanians because the same books and joint cultural achievements constitute an acceptable and common mode of cooperation, but it is obvious that the allegedly 'cultural' event on Friday reveals its political background, that is, that the spirit of a 'greater Albania' has not been extinguished.
