Serbia 'scared' of Kosovo's NATO membership: Threat posed by

Serbian Interior Minister Aleksandar Vulin has said that Kosovo's membership in NATO is not only a threat to Serbia and pressure on President Vucic, but could also lead to an armed conflict.

Putting Kosovo under the auspices of the military alliance means the annulment of Resolution 1244 (UN Security Council), the abrogation of the Kumanovo Agreement and all guarantees given by the UN, but also the obligation of all member states "to be obliged to protect in accordance with Article 5 of the Charter the territorial integrity of the newly admitted member", Vulin is said to have said, according to Danas .

Vulin asked if anyone suspected that Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti would "hesitate" to attack Serbs, "especially in the north of the province and provoke conflicts and provocations until the state of Serbia is forced to protect its people."

"Kosovo's forcible entry into the NATO pact is not only a violation of NATO membership procedures and violation of Resolution 1244, but also an open threat to Serbia and another form of pressure on Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, and the countries that they know Pristina's membership in NATO, they know " , added Vulin.

The Kosovo Assembly on Wednesday adopted a resolution calling on the government to start negotiations for NATO membership.
