In a press release, Kosovo Police informed that it is already in possession of a plan to ensure safety and security during the upcoming protest.

“With the intention of informing public opinion on the protest which will be held on 17 February, at 14:00 hours, Kosovo Police has made all the required preparations by drafting the operational plan,” says the press release.

The strategic aim of this operational plan is:

Serbian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic says that the desecration of the temple of Christ the Saviour in Pristina, in the presence of Kosovo police at Christmas time, another sad proof that Serbia was right when it opposed the Kosovo's entry into UNESCO.

"Albanians in Kosovo not only that they are incapable to protect Serbian cultural and religious heritage, but they are destroying it without any punishment for the perpetrators," said Dacic in a statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Kosovo's Deputy Prime Minister Branimir Stojanovic condemned on Sunday in the strongest terms the desecration of the Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Pristina.

The Serbian Orthodox church was desecrated by a group of protesters during Saturday's opposition riots in Pristina.

Stojanovic said the behaviour was shameful and uncivilized and that it was unacceptable that police watched the protesters who have entered the church, and did nothing.

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.
