Kosovo-Albania-Croatia military alliance revolts Serbia, demands clarification

Kosovo, Albania and Croatia have signed a trilateral declaration on a military alliance. The agreement is said to aim to strengthen the three countries' defense capabilities, increase cooperation in the defense industry, and improve military interoperability through joint education, training and exercises, as well as improve military interoperability in the region.

The Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has reacted by considering the military alliance agreement signed today in Tirana a "provocation". 

The Serbian Foreign Ministry, through a statement, said that it will send an urgent request to the Ministries of Foreign Affairs of Croatia and Albania for detailed clarification regarding the signing of the trilateral memorandum on cooperation with Kosovo in the field of defense.

With this agreement, according to the assessment of the Ministry in Belgrade, both countries (Albania and Croatia) "took steps that undermine regional stability."

Authorities in Belgrade assessed that the initiative "represents an open provocation and a gross disregard for the reality on the ground."

"We expect an urgent response from Zagreb and Tirana on the real aims and ultimate goals of this dangerous military-security game. Serbia will not allow any unilateral action that could jeopardize our territorial integrity, the security of citizens and peace in the region ," the statement said.
