The ninth day of the blockade of the buildings of Serbian institutions in the north of Kosovo
The ninth day of the blockade of the buildings of the Serbian institutions in the north of Kosovo. Hundreds of employees are still unable to go to their jobs.
Police Kosovo continued with the interrogations of the leaders of the Serbian institutions. The situation in the north of Kosovo was also a key topic in the conversation between the president of Serbia and the Russian ambassador in Loznica.
Serbian Prime Minister Milos Vucevic reiterated that the interim institutions of the Prime Minister of Pristina, Albin Kurti, intends to ethnically cleanse Kosovo and Metohija of Serbs. He assesses that Serbia has two options - the first is a political and diplomatic struggle, and the second is for Kurti to drag Serbia into the conflict.
Yesterday, the Kosovo police interrogated the representative of the Serbian List, Zoran Todic. Todic is the fourth head of the institutions of the Government of Serbia, whose facilities were closed last week by the authorities in Pristina with a police action.
The EU's special representative for dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, Miroslav Lajcak, is in Pristina to prepare the next round of dialogue between the main negotiators. After the meeting with the representative of Pristina, Besnik Bisljimi said that they agreed on the date of the meeting, but for now he does not want to make it public.
The representative of the EU announced that the opening of the Ibar bridge in Kosovska Mitrovica was also discussed at the meeting, and repeated that the bridge should be opened for traffic, but only in cooperation "with the international partners of Pristina".
The Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, Petar Petkovic, criticizing Lajcak's statements, asked why he is now removing the agreement on the Ibar Bridge from the Brussels dialogue and "until yesterday he announced this issue as the main topic of conversation in Brussels".
