Blinken: The Kurti government should withdraw the police force; Vucic to lower
Secretary of State Anthony Blinken

Secretary of State Anthony Blinken called on Tuesday to all parties in Kosovo to work to reduce tensions in the north of the country. The United States condemns Monday's violence against KFOR troops, law enforcement and journalists, which it calls "unacceptable."

This is the second statement, since Friday, that the American secretary of state blames the government of Kosovo for exacerbating the situation. "The decision of the government of Kosovo to forcefully enter the buildings of the municipalities, deeply and unnecessarily aggravated the tensions", says Mr. Blinken.

"Prime Minister Kurti and his government", he emphasizes, "must take measures for the elected mayors of the municipalities to perform their tasks of this transition phase, in alternative environments, not in the buildings of the municipalities and withdraw the police forces around them.

President Vu?i? and the government of Serbia should lower the level of readiness of the Serbian military forces and call on the Serbian residents of Kosovo not to oppose KFOR and not to commit violent acts", emphasizes Secretary Blinken.

The American chief diplomat calls on Kosovo and Serbia, as he says, "to immediately reaffirm the commitment to dialogue mediated by the European Union for the normalization of relations"./ Voa
