Foreign policy analyst Denis Avdagić has rejected claims by Aleksandar Vučić that a military alliance between Kosovo, Albania, and Croatia poses a threat to Serbia, arguing that such assertions are unfounded and politically driven.
Speaking on regional security developments, Avdagić stressed that the cooperation agreement among the three countries is transparent and does not target Serbia. He emphasized that there is no credible evidence of any threat to Serbian sovereignty or to ethnic Serbs in the region.
At the same time, he raised concerns over Serbia’s ongoing military buildup, noting increased cooperation with China and previously with Russia and Belarus. According to him, certain acquisitions appear offensive in nature rather than defensive, which could contribute to regional instability.
Avdagić also criticized the narrative of external threats, arguing that such rhetoric lacks institutional backing, including parliamentary or public debate within Serbia. Instead, he suggested it serves to heighten tensions rather than address real security concerns.
Referring to recent developments in Kosovo, he noted that isolated incidents should not be misrepresented as systemic threats, warning against politicizing security issues for domestic purposes.
The comments come amid heightened rhetoric in the Western Balkans, where questions of military cooperation, sovereignty, and regional stability remain highly sensitive.
