Ministry of Foreign Affairs statement on incidents in Northern Kosovo
31.05.2023
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses its serious concern about the increase of tensions in Northern Kosovo and strongly condemns the unprovoked attacks on NATO troops taking part in the KFOR operation, which resulted in several dozen of Allied soldiers being wounded.
The aim of the international forces’ presence in Kosovo is to ensure security of all inhabitants of the region. We express our solidarity with the KFOR soldiers wounded while on duty.
We call on all sides to refrain from unilateral actions, which can cause the situation to escalate. We urge them to halt violence, deescalate the situation, and return to dialogue under the auspices of the European Union, as well as to implement the agreement on the normalisation of relations between Serbia and Kosovo.
