MR.STANKOVIC: TREATMENT IN OTHER ENVIRONMENTS UNDER THE CONDITIONS PRESCRIBED BY THE LAWS OF SERBIA

4. August 2020.

The President of the Coordination Body for the Municipalities of Presevo, Bujanovac and Medvedja, Zoran Stankovic, said for the "Politika" daily that he had nothing against the Albanians being treated in other environments by the medical staff they trusted, under the conditions prescribed by the laws of our country. Mr. Stankovic stated that if the closest relatives and some leaders of the local Albanians could be treated in top healthcare institutions in Belgrade, Novi Sad or Nis, why should not the citizens of those three municipalities do the same in Kosovo and Metohija.  

“I cannot comment on the statements and writings of some Albanian leaders about the distrust of the Albanians in being treated in hospitals of the Republic of Serbia, where there are no doctors of their nationality, because that would mean accepting them as relevant and responsible interlocutors. There are huge differences between them and me because I do not judge people by their national, religious or political affiliation, but by the results of their work and their intellectual, professional, humane and educational roles and activities," Mr.Stankovic said.
