A group of senior officials of the German Christian Democratic Union, led by European Parliament Vice-President Reiner Wieland, visited the Visoki Decani Monastery today where they talked about the current situation in Kosovo, as well as about the monastery itself with Abbot Sava Janjic.

Visoki Decani monastery announced in a Facebook post that Father Sava Janjic talked to the guests about „the precarious position of Serbs and our holy sites in present-day Kosovo, as well as the dangers of territorial-ethnic partition, which would inevitably cause the emigration of the majority of the Serbian population“.

German politicians were also introduced to the position of the Synod of the Serbian Orthodox Church, which „decisively remains against any partition or delimitation, but also against the recognition of Kosovo by Serbia, because Serbs have openly been treated as a second-class population in ‘ethnic Albanian territory’ in the last twenty years“.
