Serbian President, Aleksandar Vučič, stated that the authorities in Serbia have information that the Albanians are silently and secretly trying to take over the north of Kosovo after the police began patrolling the border between the two countries and in the area of Lake Ujman.
Vucic said that for this, the Albanians have the support of the biggest European powers and the QUINT countries, writes Euronews Serbia.
“Today, their Minister of the Interior announced that they completely control the lake of Ujman. With the Brussels Agreement, the police in the north must meet with the Northern Directorate, that is, the Serbs must be there”, said Vučič.
Kosovo Police started water patrolling on the border with Serbia and the entire Ujman Lake area for the first time since the war.
The news was announced by the Minister of Internal Affairs in Kosovo, Xhelal Sveçla, through an announcement on social networks.
“For the first time since the post-war, after the creation of the water patrol unit, the Kosovo Police today started regular patrolling of the borderline between the Republic of Kosovo and Serbia, as well as the entire area of Lake Ujman. Now, the control of the state border is more complete. I congratulate the Kosovo Police for the next success!” he added.
Meanwhile, EU mediator Miroslav Lajcak and envoys of Berlin and Paris, Jens Ploetner and Emmanuel Bonne are setting off on a visit to Pristina and Belgrade on Friday to “boost the momentum in the dialogue generated by the agreement on personal documents.”
