Grenell after the release of the police officer: Kurti can no longer slide without serious consequences

The former Special Envoy of the United States of America for the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, Richard Grenell, welcomed the decision of the court in Serbia to release three Kosovo police officers pending trial and that now there had to be an immediate international unity to put pressure on the Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, to remove the Special Forces from government buildings in the north, that the mayors resign and that a date be set for new elections.

"There can be no more letting Kurti slide without serious consequences," Grenell stressed.

He pointed out that he was pleased with the release of the three Kosovo police officers and stated that it was an obvious move in the direction of de-escalation by the President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic.

“The fears and emotions from the people of North Mitrovica are real - they feel harassed and targeted - their hospitals don't have enough supplies. This is a tinderbox and it's shameful the EU and Biden Administration haven't even been there. Nevertheless, there is no excuse for attacking KFOR or journalists,” Grenell said on Twitter.
