(ANSA) - BELGRADE - The US government's aversion to a border
change in the Balkans was underlined by US Ambassador to Serbia
Kyle Scott.
With respect to the controversy raised in Serbia by the statements made by former head of the Osce delegation in Kosovo in the 1990s, US diplomat William Walker, who admitted that he is supporting the so-called 'Greater Albania' project, Scott said Walker talked personally, therefore his statements do not reflect at all the official policy of the US government.
''The US position is against a change of borders in the Balkans, against the creation of a 'Greater Albania', or a 'Greater Serbia''', ambassador said. ''Mr. Walker is a private citizen and can say what he wants. What I know is that the US government supports and promotes stability in the region'', the US diplomat added. (ANSA).
