Chief of the Administrative Office in Mitrovica North, Adriana Hodzic, announced that this office will integrate in the new municipal administration, which derived from the latest local elections.

She told KosovaPress that the Administrative Office is basis for the future municipality of Mitrovica North.

According to her, no one should be surprised if the headquarters of the Mitrovica North municipality transfers at the current premises of the Administrative Office soon.

Deputy of the European Parliament, Tanja Fajon, spoke in an interview for Radio Dukagjini about the “Peace Park” set immediately after the removal of the barricade over the River Ibër/Ibar bridge. “I would urge both p[arties, Albanians and Serbs, to restrain from violence and clashes. Normal flow of life in Kosovo is extremely important. Also it is very important for this barricade to be removed as soon as possible, because it is being proved that the situation there, with this “Peace Park” could escalate,” said Fajon.

In Albanians’ efforts to breakthrough in the south as of 1999, two Serbs died and around 300 were injured.

The German Ambassador in Pristina, Peter Blomeyer, stated that “perhaps it could be said that flowers and pine trees are more beautiful than the ugly barricade.”

 “Anyhow, there was lack of communication…There should be discussions for a joint solution. Even though we have some pines over the bridge, they will not turn the world upside down. We have to find a solution to use the bridge,” said Blomeyer in an interview for RTK.
