They voiced their opposition to the setting up of the border between Kosovo and central Serbia in the north of the province, and sent out a message that they do not recognize EULEX.

Zubin Potok municipal president Slaviša Ristić said that Kosovo Serbs will never allow representatives of UNMIK, KFOR and the Kosovo Police Service to set up the border between Kosovo and Serbia.

Ristić said that the installing of video monitoring at the administrative crossing that prompted the Monday rally is aimed at setting up customs in northern Kosovo and deployment of EULEX in this area.

The EU mission in Kosovo is illegal and unlawful, because it does not have an approval of the UN Security Council, Zvečan Municipality President Dragiša Milović told those gathered.

The peaceful protest was held in the central part of the town, and the participants carried banners reading “Stop to EULEX”, “Kosovo is Serbia”, and, “We do not want borders and customs”.
