Serbia has expressed concerns over the increasing military cooperation between Kosovo, Albania, and Croatia, formalized with the signing of a declaration in Tirana on Tuesday. Ministry of Foreign Affairs considered the military alliance as a "provocation".
Serbia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a strong reaction, stating that it will demand accountability from Croatia and Albania.
In a statement posted on X, Serbia’s Foreign Ministry announced that it will send an urgent request to the Ministries of Foreign Affairs of Croatia and Albania, seeking a detailed explanation regarding the signing of the tripartite memorandum on defense cooperation.
Furthermore, the Serbian ministry refers to Serbia as “a guarantor of peace and military neutrality in the Balkans” and demands answers about the nature and objectives of this security cooperation.
“It is particularly concerning that this military alliance is being formed without consultation with Belgrade… which poses a threat to the security of the Serbian people and the entire region,” the statement reads.
Kosovo, Albania, and Croatia signed the Tripartite Military Cooperation Declaration on Tuesday. Prime minister of Kosovo described this declaration as an extremely important step for security and peace in the region.
"We will not ignore the clear political message of this initiative. It is obvious that this memorandum is not the result of a casual cooperation, but a strategy aimed at isolating Serbia and strengthening paramilitary structures in the southern province of Serbia, in violation of international law and UN Security Council Resolution 1244," the Serbian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
