Vehicles with KМ license plates not allowed to pass Jarinje, Brnjak crossings

Belgrade, 18 January 2023

Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Petar Petkovic stated that as of this morning Kosovo police do not allow vehicles with regular KM license plates to pass the Jarinje and Brnjak crossings.

This is a brutal violation of the agreement on license plates which Belgrade and Pristina reached in Brussels on 23 November last year, after a serious crisis that threatened to completely endanger peace in Kosovo and Metohija, Petkovic said.

This agreement stipulates that until a final solution on license plates is found, KM license plates shall remain in full use.

“Also, with this agreement Pristina pledged to immediately suspend the penal policy and all the activities regarding so-called re-registration of vehicles against drivers of vehicles with KM license plates.

However, this morning Kurti’s police have resumed the penal policy unilaterally and illegally, they started to harass Serbs at crossings and violate the agreement, by which they introduce new tension and problems in the north of Kosovo and Metohija.

That is why we expect from the European Union, which is the guarantor of the agreement, to protect and enable its implementation and take a clear stance in relation to such moves by Pristina,” Petkovic stated.
