Belgrade to Ahtisaari: Best step down

“It is doubtful whether Ahtisaari will adhere to his mandate and organize serious talks on the province’s future, or if he will simply side with Albanian separatists. Even if Ahtisaari is in such a hurry and cannot dedicate himself to the thorough preparation of the negotiations, he must be aware this is about our lives, our destiny, which is of much greater importance than someone’s hurry or anxiety. It would be fair of him to step down, rather than side with the separatist in front of the whole world”, Đurić said.

State Kosovo team coordinator Slobodan Samardžić believes someone with a different mandate and a different style ought to take over the mediation and the conducting of the negotiations. Only after the end of Ahtisaari’s mandate and his can there be any serious negotiating process, Samardžić believes.

Dušan Janjić, chairman of the Ethnic Relations Committee, thinks Ahtisaari’s statements should be ignored, as his influence isn’t what it used to be. “It became apparent he was not what people thought he was, evidently he is ready for dealing low political blows. Belgrade hasn’t gained much entering the war of words with him, all that achieved was to convince those who did not trust Belgrade they were right not to. Meanwhile, those who trust Belgrade heard us out, but went on to formally support Ahtisaari”, Janjić says.
