The paper reports on page two that Kosovo’s Deputy Prime Minister Dalibor Jevtic has joined statements by Belgrade officials saying that there are 200,000 Serb IDPs that cannot return to Kosovo. The Kosovo government did not comment on Jevtic’s remarks, but they were refuted by the UNHCR Office in Kosovo. The latter told the paper in a written reply: “UNHCR estimates that there are around 89,480 displaced persons from Kosovo (from the 1999 conflict) in countries of the region and who still have shelter needs and are awaiting solutions … Around 72,000 of them are in Serbia, 729 in Montenegro and 394 in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. It is believed there are 16,357 displaced persons in Kosovo”.
