Serbs protest in North Mitrovica against the opening of the bridge over the Iber
In North Mitrovica, near the main bridge over the river Ibër, members of the Serbian community protested, who opposed its opening for vehicle traffic.
"On the bridge we defended survival, now we defend extinction", "If Kurti opens the bridge, KFOR and QUINT will be responsible", "While the EU and the USA are writing statements, they are expelling us" , were some of the messages seen on the protesters' banners in North Mitrovica.
The bridge over the river Ibër separates the Albanian-majority South Mitrovica and the Serb-majority North Mitrovica, and the Government of Kosovo, despite the opposition of the international community, has said that it intends to open it for the movement of vehicles.
During the protest, the former judge from North Mitrovica, Nikola Kabashiq, said that a consensus must be reached between all the representatives of the Serbs in Kosovo to identify and protect the basic interests of the Serbian community.
"Misery is our collective problem. We are attacked as a people, we are under aggression to leave Kosovo", said Kabashiq.
As a form of pressure, the members of the Serbian community mentioned the efforts of the Albin Kurti Government to establish authority in the north of Kosovo, as well as the presence of members of the special units of the Kosovo Police.
Kabashiq emphasized that the protest was not against the Albanian people, but against the Government of Prime Minister Albin Kurti.
Speaking about the intention of the Government of Kosovo to open the bridge over the Ibar, Kabashiq said that the Serbian community does not want this, while adding that the claims of the Kosovar authorities that this would be done for peace and coexistence are not correct.
"We don't feel safe here," he said, adding that there is freedom of movement even though the bridge is not open to traffic.
According to him, the bridge can be opened only if the parties agree within the dialogue on the normalization of relations and when the situation is normalized.
In this context, he demanded that the members of the special units of the Kosovo Police withdraw from the north of Kosovo and that the representatives of the Serbian community take over the leadership of the local government.
Meanwhile, Ivan Millojević, director of the Post of Serbia in Kosovo, said that he expects that in the coming days the branches of this post will also be closed south of Ibri, adding that the Serbs should oppose the Kosovo authorities "with dignity".
On August 5, Kosovo authorities closed nine facilities of the Post of Serbia in northern Kosovo, after arguing that they were operating without a license. The action was criticized by the international community.
Milojevic said that the employees of the Post of Serbia are being accused by the Kosovar authorities of money laundering.
"Unë kam marrë përgjegjësinë përpara punonjësve të mi dhe kam shkruar se unë personalisht duhet të akuzohem. Nëse dikush duhet të shkojë në burg, ai jam unë. Edhe nesër në urë [për të penguar hapjen] ai do të jem unë”, tha ai gjatë protestës së 7 gushtit.
Pas përfundimit të protestës, kryeministri i Kosovës, Albin Kurti, ftoi pjesëtarët e komunitetit serb, që të enjten të marrin pjesë në një diskutim në Mitrovicën e Veriut, në të cilin tha se mund të njoftohen “mbi përfitimet nga hapja e urës dhe të shprehin shqetësimet e tyre të cilat do të trajtohen nga përfaqësuesit tanë institucionalë dhe institucionet e vendit”.
“Për shumë gjatë ura e Mitrovicës mbi Ibër na ka mbajtur në distancë. Asaj padrejtësisht i është dhënë epiteti i ndasisë dhe marrëdhënieve jonormale. Urat na bashkojnë, e bashkë le ta bëjmë atë simbol të normalizimit”, shkroi ai në Facebook.
Në periudhën pasluftës, ura mbi lumin Ibër, ishte simbol i trazirave dhe barrikadave të ngritura nga serbët e Kosovës për t'i kundërshtuar përpjekjet e Kosovës për të vendosur autoritetin në veri.
Ura, aktualisht, është e hapur vetëm për këmbësorë, edhe pse në kuadër të dialogut mes Kosovës dhe Serbisë është rënë dakord që të hapet edhe për qarkullimin e automjeteve.
Qeveria e kryeministrit të Kosovës, Albin Kurti, në mes të korrikut njoftoi se synon të hapë urën kryesore mbi lumin Ibër në Mitrovicë.
Megjithatë, vendet e QUINT-it – SHBA, Britania e Madhe, Gjermania, Franca dhe Italia – më 2 gusht deklaruan se nuk e mbështesin hapjen e urës në këtë moment.
Misioni i NATO-s në Kosovë, KFOR, deklaroi se çdo vendim për hapjen e urës kryesore mbi lumin Ibër duhet të merret në kuadër të dialogut mes Kosovës dhe Serbisë, që ndërmjetësohet nga Bashkimi Evropian.
Ushtarët italianë në kuadër të misionit të KFOR-it ndodhen në urën mbi lumin Ibër, ndërsa afër ndodhen edhe pjesëtarët e Policisë së Kosovës.
Zëdhënësi i BE-së, Peter Stano, më 1 gusht përsëriti qëndrimin e BE-së se çështja e hapjes së urës në Mitrovicë duhet të zgjidhet në kuadër të dialogut, duke pasur parasysh që për këtë ekziston një marrëveshje.
KFOR-i gjithashtu deklaroi se nuk do të hezitojë të reagojë nëse ekziston rreziku që ngjarjet të ndikojnë në sigurinë dhe stabilitetin rajonal.
Në protestën e 7 gushtit në Mitrovicë të Veriut ishin edhe përfaqësues të Listës Serbe, partisë më e madhe e serbëve në Kosovë, e cila ka mbështetjen e Beogradit.
Kjo parti më herët kishte deklaruar se ura nuk mund të hapet pa konsultime dhe pëlqimin e shumicës serbe që jeton në anën veriore të urës.
Asamblistët e Kuvendit të Komunës së Mitrovicë të Veriut në prill të vitit të kaluar miratuan vendimin për hapjen e urës mbi Ibër, i cili më pas iu dërgua Ministrisë së Punëve të Brendshme të Kosovës dhe Ministrisë së Administrimit të Pushtetit Lokal.
Nënkryetari i Kuvendit të Komunës së Mitrovicës së Veriut, Skender Sadiku, në fund të majit tha se për zbatimin e këtij vendimi tani janë përgjegjëse institucionet qendrore, KFOR-i dhe Bashkimi Evropian.
He emphasized that the local authorities in South Mitrovica must also agree with this decision.
The Serbs in the north at the end of 2022, on the initiative of the Serbian List, resigned from the institutions of Kosovo due to the decision of the Government of Kosovo that the car plates, issued by Serbia, should be replaced with RKS - Republic of Kosovo plates.
The Serbs also boycotted the elections of April last year, votes from which the Albanian mayors of four municipalities in the north came to power.
After the pressure of the international community, the Government of Kosovo organized on April 21 of this year the vote for the dismissal of the presidents in the north, but the Serbs boycotted the process after the call of the Serbian List for a boycott. The Serbian List had argued that the voter lists "do not reflect the real situation on the ground" and that the number of Albanians on the voter lists "has increased".
In recent months, the authorities in Kosovo have taken several decisions, such as the decision to ban the use of the Serbian dinar for making cash payments, they have started the closure of Serbian institutions in Kosovo, and they have confiscated properties that are owned by the Kosovo Agency. of Privatization./ REL
