Slavko Simic, leader of the Serbian List, paid a separate visit to the village of Gorazdevac on Monday and not as part of a delegation led by Marko Djuric, head of the Serbian Government’s Office for Kosovo. One day after the incident when shots were fired at several Serb houses and a monument was demolished, Simic is calling for a local solution in order to protect the village. The leader of the Serbian List is thus holding a position different from that of Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic. “I dont expect the international community to act on this. The problem of attacks needs to be resolved by the Kosovo Police. The Kosovo Minister of Interior Affairs and the police commander in Peja must go out on the field and talk to the people living in those settlements. It seems that someone minds the monument in Gorazdevac which has special importance for the Serbs,” Simic said. He also said that law enforcement authorities need to step up static patrols and that this requires political readiness. Simic, who lives in Leposavic, argued that there is a scenario behind the attacks against Serbs. “I know that Albanians do not wish any harm on the Serb minority. But there are individuals that want to create conflict and trigger a series of incidents in the north, whereby Serbs would attack Albanians. We should all be very careful. The parties should distance themselves from individuals that carry out attacks ... No one should say that there is extremism and terrorism in this case. This about teenagers who don’t know what they are doing,” Simic added. Unlike Simic, the head of the Serb Orthodox Church for Kosovo, Teodosije, said that the law enforcement authorities are losing control over the situation and the protection of Serbs.
