“Breaking into and looting the houses, as well as intrusion in the house of old woman Ilinka Nesic, that took place last night in the village of Grabac, Klina municipality, clearly indicate why better results could not be achieved in the returns process, outgoing Minister for Communities and Returns, Dalibor Jevtic said, KIM Radio reported today.

Jevtic underlined that such incidents send a clear message there is no readiness on the side of those who should provide conditions for return to do so in a concrete manner.

Permanent peace in Kosovo is in Serbs’ interest, Srpska Lista official Dalibor Jevtic told the media, adding he expects there would be talks about the legal framework of the Association/Community of Serb-Majority Municipalities at the forthcoming meetings between Belgrade and Pristina officials.

“What contributes to the peace is encouraging to everybody, in particular to the Serbs living south of the Ibar River, Jevtic told Serbian media, commenting on yesterday’s meeting between Vucic and Thaci in Brussels.

Each year on June 20 the United Nations, United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and countless civic groups around the world host World Refugee Day events in order to draw the public's attention to the millions of refugees and Internally displaced persons worldwide who have been forced to flee their homes due to war, conflict and persecution.

Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Communities and Returns, Dalibor Jevtic said the aim of the visit to Washington is to realistically present problems of Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija, Serbian media reported.

Jevtic with Srpska Lista delegation is paying a visit to the USA, where he will speak about recent incidents against Serbs and their properties in Kosovo.

The Minister for Communities and Returns and the Deputy Prime Minister of the Kosovo Government in resignation, Dalibor Jevtic, believe that the issue of "Trepca" probably will be tackled within the framework of the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, KIM radio reports on Friday.

The government adopted this week a draft of the Trepca Statute and forwarded it to the Kosovo Assembly for consideration.

Serbs who have remained in Staro Gracko after the conflict, on a daily basis are facing provocations by young Albanians living in that part of the village, Gorica Matovic, whose family members were injured in an incident on Wednesday, told RTV KIM.

The situation, following the incident, that left three Matovic family members injured, including a 6-month old baby, is calm but tense, RTV KIM further said.

Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Communities and Returns, Dalibor Jevtic said that last night incident in the village of Staro Gracko when children were attacked is a dangerous provocation, KIM Radio reports.

He added, it is even more dangerous because a six-month old baby who was in arms of her mother was also injured.

One man was injured and another arrested when Kosovo Albanians in the village of Klina protested against Serbs displaced in the aftermath of the 1999 conflict who returned to visit the local church.

Kosovo’s Minister for Returns and Communities, Dalibor Jevtic, condemned the incident on Monday which saw one person injured when ethnic Albanian residents of Klina blocked a road in protest against the visiting Serbs.

“This is unacceptable, and to this and similar incidents we must stand in the way,” Jevtic said.

The blockade of roads and the prevention of displaced persons to visit to at least a day the Church of the Holy Trinity in the village of Petric near Kline is a shameful act that brings nothing good to anyone living in Kosovo, said Dalibor Jevtić.

Frequent thefts of properties in Serb areas over the last couple of months fully stopped return process, and also induce pressure on remaining Serbs to move out from areas affected by such incidents, outgoing Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Communities and Returns Dalibor Jevtic said, Serbian media reported.
