 The UK-based publicist and analyst Tim Judah talked about the idea of ​​correcting and exchanging territories between Kosovo and Serbia.

In an interview for TV N1, the analyst emphasizes that this idea is no longer in the discussion table, because she strongly believes that was finally banished at the Berlin Summit held a few days ago by German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the president of France, Emmanuel Macron.

"This does not mean that the border change theme will not come back in the future, because it has been mentioned over the past 30 years. But, I think it is currently stopped," he said. This idea (exchange of territories) according to the analyst is accompanied by different analyzes, emphasizing that there are also those who support it.

He adds that a potential exchange of territories would have implications for the entire Balkan region.

"I think it's not worth for the borders to be touched, because that's a big risk. And, currently it's no longer an option," he added.
