Serbian Government Office for Kosovo and Metohija Director, Marko Djuric commenting on a statement of Kosovo President Hashim Thaci on “unification of Mitrovica” said Thaci should not play games with Serbia and should not threaten Serbs, RTS reports. At the same time, Djuric urged the EU to react before it is too late.

“Hashim Thaci speaks about annexation of Mitrovica North, and I want to convey a message to him, not to play games with Serbia and threaten Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija, not to act irresponsibly, since such statements are call for destabilization,” Djuric said.

Djuric warned the EU not to turn a blind eye to this, urging it to react before it is too late.

Meanwhile, Srpska Lista Chair, Goran Rakic also reacted saying Serbs shall never allow unification of the northern and southern parts of Mitrovica, since the statements about unification “are a cover for ethnic cleansing of Serbs from the only urban area where the Serbs have survived the ethnic cleansing in 1999.”
