Kosovo’s president made a rare visit on Saturday (29 September) to a disputed, mainly ethnic Serb area in the north of the country, angering Belgrade just three weeks after Serbia’s president infuriated Pristina by visiting the same area.

“Let’s work together for a new Kosovo…Kosovo is one, unique, independent and a sovereign country,” President Hashim Thaçi told Kosovo media at Lake Gazivoda, an artificial lake in a mainly ethnic Serb area. Serbia’s President Alexander Vučić had visited the lake on 8 September.

Kosovo’s mainly ethnic Albanian security forces generally stay out of the small, mainly ethnic Serbian pocket of territory in the north, which Kosovo and Serbia dispute.
