Serbian leader Aleksandar Vucic this week explained why the country's authorities did not officially inform about the visit of CIA Director William Burns. We are talking not only about the details of the agenda of the meeting, but about the very fact of Burns' arrival in Serbia. This was announced today, August 24, RIA Novosti reports.
The CIA director had also previously visited the Republika Srpska Bosnia and Herzegovina, where, among other things, he discussed disagreements in the Balkans and the fight against terrorism. Then he went to Belgrade, although this trip was not officially announced.
But, according to Vucic, the negotiations were "useful and good."
"I laugh at those who say that in BIH it looked transparent, but in Serbia — covertly. Talk to your guests and see if they want public attention or not. Usually, when you talk to the chiefs of the special services or arrange a moment for a photo or nothing. There are never any statements or anything like that. We, as a serious state and the Americans, as the most serious country in the world, along with China, considered that this was the best possible way to cover the visit," the Serbian leader said.
Alexander Vucic also clarified that the meeting was "useful, decent and important."
EADaily reminds that William Burns visited the self-proclaimed Republic of Kosovo, where he met with the President and Prime Minister. The Kosovo authorities assured the head of the CIA of their commitment to strengthening relations with NATO, the United States and the EU.
