Speaking for the CTK news agency he said that if elected, he would "not allow a Czech ambassador to be sent to Pristina". Favorite to win Czech elections calls Kosovo "terrorist" "I would withdraw even the charge d'affaires that is there now, let alone send an ambassador. I consider Kosovo a terrorist regime financed by narco-mafias," Belgrade-based daily Danas is quoting Zeman as saying. According to opinion polls, Zeman is more likely to win in the second round of the elections, scheduled for late January. His opponent is Karel Schwarzenberg.
