International community should react to terror against Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija

Belgrade, 23 December 2022

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic said today that it is nothing new for Serbia that Pristina is making a list of Serbs for arrest, and that the only difference is that this time they made it public, although six days ago, they officially denied making such a list.

"And really, after this, no one in the international community has the right to turn a blind eye to the fact which even Pristina no longer hides, and that is they have a list of undesirable Serbs. There are names on that list that have absolutely nothing to do with politics. That list includes the names of the brother and the elder son of the President of the Republic of Serbia. It is a new provocation, a new destabilisation of the region, a new attempt to create chaos, which Kurti is continuously doing with the aim of causing conflict.

I condemn in the harshest terms the attack on the family of President Aleksandar Vucic. I strongly condemn the persecution and targeting of all people from the mentioned list, but also of all other people who are not of Albanian nationality, and who cannot achieve even the most basic human rights in Kosovo and Metohija.

I am sure that they would really arrest all those people from the list, and that all those people would have the same treatment as Dejan Pantic, about whom his family did not have a single piece of information for 13 days, by which all civilisational rights of this man were violated. This violation of Dejan Pantic's rights is the best image of the character of Albin Kurti, Vjosa Osmani and all those who manage temporary institutions in Pristina today.

In this way, I again appeal to all relevant actors in the international community not to turn a blind eye to the terror being perpetrated against the Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija. Open threats, public intimidation and political persecution are the reality that all citizens in the territory of Kosovo and Metohija who are not of Albanian nationality live.

I remind you that this is happening in the 21st century, in the heart of Europe, under the auspices of UNMIK, EULEX and KFOR, and that it is high time everyone stood up to protect them," said the Prime Minister.
