"He made threatening statements against Kosovo"/ Sveçla accuses

Kosovo's Interior Minister, Xhelal Sveçla, on Wednesday criticized the former head of Serbia's secret service, Aleksandar Vulin, for "unacceptable and deeply threatening" statements towards his country and Prime Minister Albin Kurti.

In a video shared by Sveçla, Vulin apparently calls for Serbia to act against Kosovo in the same way that the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, had acted in Iran, saying "if Israel can do it, why can't we too?"

He then says that Serbian intelligence should draw up a plan to deal with "the bearers of policies against Serbia," mentioning Kosovo's Prime Minister Kurti by name.

Sveçla said that imposing an analogy from a conflict with open war, armed threats and declared operations against actors considered enemies, and applying them in relation to the Prime Minister of Kosovo, "implies the normalization of the logic of covert operations as a means of direct threat and destabilization in the Balkans."

Vulin served for several years as Serbia's defense minister and then head of the BIA. In 2025, he found a new job at an association led by the head of Russia's intelligence.

Vulin has close relations with Russia and is sanctioned by the United States due to his activities.

The Kosovo minister further said on Wednesday that Vulin used a "dangerous precedent" when he said that Serbian intelligence "knows how to do this, because we have done it before."

Sveçla added that "our recent history proves that Serbian intelligence structures were involved in the murder of prominent Albanian political activists, such as Jusuf Gërvalla, Bardhosh Gërvalla and Kadri Zeka," who were killed in 1982 in Germany.

Sveçla also indicated that in the middle of last month, Kosovo authorities arrested two Belarusian citizens and a Russian citizen, who, according to him, had entered Kosovo illegally in camouflage, after having previously stayed in Serbia. Their case is being reviewed, he added.

"In addition to their military experience, specialist explosives training and connections with Serbia, they possessed equipment for orientation, camouflage and the implementation of operational plans - elements that coincide with the rhetoric articulated by Vulin ," Sve?la stressed.

Kosovo and Serbia continue to have very tense relations, especially since 2023, when a group of armed Serbs attacked the Kosovo Police in the village of Zvecan in the north of the country, leaving a sergeant dead. The country was also rocked by an explosion a year later, when the vital Iber-Lepenc water canal was severely damaged in the north. Kosovo has blamed Serbia for both incidents, but Belgrade has denied any involvement. /REL
