Jablanovic: Only the northern Serbs can remove Ibar barricade (Koha)
The news site reports on a roundtable being held in the town of Gracanica about the situation in Kosovo, specifically about the northern part of the country. Sources told Koha that in attendance is Aleksandar Jablanovic, the leader of the Serbian List and former Kosovo Minister for Returns and Communities who was suspended from this post after insulting the mothers of missing persons from Gjakova/Djakovica. Jablanovic reportedly said at the roundtable that only the northern Serbs can remove the barricade on the River Ibar Bridge. “The barricade cannot be removed by Edita Tahiri [Kosovo’s Minister for Dialogue], Agim Bahtiri [Mitrovica Mayor] and not even by Goran Rakic [Mitrovica North Mayor]. Only those who placed the barricade can remove it,” Jablanovic said in reference to recent media reports that the barricade could be removed soon.
