EU and US Criticism of Kosovo Aids Serbian Aggression

The EU and US's spineless diplomacy empowers Serbia's Vucic, undermines Kosovo's sovereignty, and destabilises the Balkans, prioritising appeasement over accountability and regional stability.

In a stunning display of geopolitical timidity, the EU and US are giving Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic free rein to destabilise the Balkans. This disconcerting acquiescence unfolds against the backdrop of Kosovo's recent decision to close nine illegally operating Serbian Post offices in northern Kosovo and open the Ibër River bridge, actions condemned by both Brussels and Washington as unilateral and uncoordinated. This article peels back the layers of this diplomatic fiasco, exposing the gutlessness of Western powers in dealing with a Kremlin-aligned autocrat and examining the broader implications for Balkan stability.
