European MP: I thank Russia for its being against shifting borders in Europe

Read it in Russian

“We are talking today about an territorial integrity of Serbia and future of its region, Kosovo, where each day fundamental human rights are breached, Serbian community is facing a humanitarian catastrophe and common Christian heritage of Europe is systematically destroyed by Islamic terrorists,” Sylwester Chruszcz, Member of the European Parliament announced at the debate on the future of Kosovo in Strasbourg on July 11.

“I am surprised that events and the current situation in Kosovo are very often reported to international public opinion at unilateral way. Unprecedented plan to grant independence to Kosovo means breaching territorial integrity of Serbia and further escalation of the conflict. A decision about separation Kosovo from Serbia threatens stability at the whole European continent and is causing in the future a ‘domino effect’ in many disputed ethnic areas in Europe,” the European MP said.

Chruszcz also expressed his dissatisfaction with the fact that “the EU authorities want to be a part in this Balkan conflict without any right or mandate to do so.” According to him, “it is obvious that it is up to sovereign states and nations to decide about a future of Europe and the world in the framework of such international institutions like the UN. Therefore I thank to Russia and other countries that at the UN Security Council level are against shifting borders in Europe.”
