Kosovo Vows to Halt Serb Refugee Settlement (Balkan Insight)
The Serbian government-funded construction of a housing settlement for Serb refugees in northern Kosovo has angered Kosovo officials, who claim it is an attempt to extend Belgrade’s political influence.
The recent start of construction on Sunny Valley, the first big returnee settlement that the Serbian government plans to build in the northern Kosovo town of Zvecan, has caused outrage in Pristina.
Some media outlets have described the move as a neo-colonial attempt by Belgrade to consolidate its influence over the Serb-majority north, while Kosovo’s Prime Minister Isa Mustafa said that the project has “no legal permits” and that the construction will not be allowed to continue.
