After the Embassy of Great Britain issued a statement advising its citizens not to travel to the north of Kosovo due to the crime there, Germany did a similar thing, Tanjug news agency reported. Namely, German Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a warning to its citizens not to travel to the northern municipalities of Zubin Potok, Leposavic, Zvecan and Mitrovica North because “situation there is still tense.” “Although the violence is usually not directed towards foreigners, the possibility that isolated incidents hampering security and limiting general freedom of movement might happen cannot be excluded,” the German Ministry said in its recommendations. The statement posted on the official internet site further recalled that on January 16, 2018 “well-known Kosovo Serb politician Oliver Ivanovic was killed in Mitrovica North,” and the Ministry recommends to its citizens “that before they travel to the north of Kosovo to get updated about the situation and plan the travel carefully,” as well as if possible “in cases of individual travels to be escorted by local guides.” German citizens are also advised “to remain prudent and avoid large gatherings.”
