Headlines - 29.01.2015 EU: Kosovo needs to find a common language (Zeri) The European Union Office in Kosovo issued a press release on Wednesday saying that any violence is unacceptable. “Protesting peacefully is a fundamental, inalienable democratic right of citizens. It is a democratic way for citizens to send messages to their political leaders. Violence, however, is unacceptable. It is therefore primarily in the interest of those organizing demonstrations and those demonstrating to distance themselves from violence and prevent its occurrence during such gatherings. As in any democratic society, solutions are to be found through political dialogue in political institutions, through social dialogue among social partners – and in an open dialogue of the authorities with society. Kosovo needs to find a common language to act on economic development and rule-of-law,” said the press release. The EU Office in Kosovo urged political leaders to unite in providing answers to people's hopes.
