Russian Orthodox Church Patriarch Kirill has stated that Kosovo Serbs are hostages of a great geopolitical game. “With an indifferent attitude of many states they are forced to live in closed enclaves, feeling the everyday concern due to hostile environment. Our brothers in religion have a great courage and they are not leaving their suffering country and holy places, they live just like in concentration camps. They are not even given a basic right to life,” Kirill stressed. K. Serbs victims of geopolitical game - Russian patriarch “Here we see the unacceptable injustice, double standards and lies of the policy that declares commitment to ideals of humanism, protection of human rights and turns a blind eye before the hell that the extremists have created with help from their sponsors from abroad,” he explained. The Russian patriarch has assessed that “the western world in the time of the NATO intervention against Yugoslavia (in 1999) was exposed to an intensive media campaign and was significantly deceived”. He added that the “western media had been publishing intentionally twisted information about the Milosevic regime’s atrocities against Kosovo Albanians by exaggerating the number of victims of ethnic cleansing carried out by the Serbian police in the province“. “The priceless monuments that the Serbian people have build in Kosovo and Metohija will stay alive as long as prayers are heard in the temples,” he said, repeating that Russia was helping to restore and protect the Serbian Orthodox monuments through UNESCO and that it had been sending humanitarian aid to the Kosovo Serbs. “I have been to Kosovo and Metohija many times and met with the local population and I witnessed the difficult conditions they live in. The things I have seen have strongly affected me. The Russian Orthodox Church showed and will show solidarity with the Kosovo Serbs,” the Russian patriarch concluded.
