Stolterberg after the meeting with Vucic: Both sides should refrain from
NATO head Jens Stoltenberg in a meeting with Serbian president Aleksandër Vucic

The Secretary General of NATO, Jens Stolteberg, said this Wednesday that it is very important to reduce tensions in Kosovo, and that both sides refrain from violence.

He made these statements after a meeting he held with the Serbian president, Aleksandar Vucic.

"We believe that the dialogue (between Kosovo and Serbia) should resume", he added.

Stoltenberg recalled that NATO has increased the presence of its mission in Kosovo, KFOR, due to the recent tensions in the north. "We will continue to maintain peace, as our mandate foresees", said Stoltenberg, adding that NATO forces will be there to carry out the mandate envisaged by the United Nations.

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, has said that he is very concerned about the recent developments in Kosovo, and has asked NATO, through KFOR, to provide security for the Serbs living there. According to him, Belgrade believes that the "irresponsible actions of the Government of Kosovo" are the main reason for the recent developments.

The meeting between Stoltenberg and Vucic took place on the day when the EU envoy for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, Miroslav Lajcak, met in Brussels with the chief negotiators of both countries: Besnik Bislim and Petar Petkovic. There was no tripartite meeting.

During the day, Lajcak is said to have also met with Vucic. The situation in the north of Kosovo - an area inhabited by a majority of Serbs - has been tense since the end of May, when the Kosovo Police assisted the new Albanian mayors of Zveçan, Leposaviq and Zubin Potok to enter the municipal buildings, despite the resistance of the local residents Serbian. Tensions culminated in violence on May 29, when Serbian protesters in Zveçan clashed with KFOR soldiers. Dozens of injuries were reported from both sides.
