UNMIK concerned over violence on the protests in Pristina (B92, Kontakt plus, RTK2)

The United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) voiced concern on Saturday about the violence observed at the protests in Pristina's city center, during which Molotov cocktails, stones and other objects were thrown at the government building and police.

“Such acts by certain individuals have no place in a democratic society and have nothing to do with the legitimate right to peaceful protest expressed by many others,” UNMIK said in a release.

UNMIK urges a return to democratic means of expressing opinions, including through the Kosovo Assembly, reads the release.

The EU Office in Pristina also condemned the violence and the destruction of public property, calling for peace and restraint, the Albanian language news website koha.net reported.
