KOSOVO-SERBIA TENSION

Tensions between Kosovo and Serbia have escalated after the detention of former Serbian police officer Dejan Pantic.

Reacting to Pantic’s detention, Kosovo Serbs blocked the roads with the barricades they set up in northern Kosovo on 10-29 December 2022.

Serbian President Vucic had called for the barricades erected in response to Pantic’s arrest in northern Kosovo to be lifted after the detention order was turned into house arrest.

Serbia considers Kosovo, which declared its independence unilaterally in 2008, as its territory.

Serbia and Kosovo, which periodically clash, are trying to find a common way for the normalization of relations and eventually for the two countries to get to know each other, within the scope of the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue Process initiated in 2011 under EU mediation. (AA)
