Office for Kosovo and Metohija: Aleksandar S. from Strpce also expelled by Kurti’s illegal decision

The Office for Kosovo and Metohija announced that, on the order of caretaker Prime Minister Albin Kurti, another Serb was expelled from Kosovo last night. According to the statement, the individual is 34-year-old Aleksandar S. from Brezovica near Strpce, employed by the Ministry of the Interior in Niska Banja.

The Office reports that Aleksandar S. was detained yesterday afternoon at the General Jankovc administrative crossing while returning to Kosovo from North Macedonia.

“Overnight, he too was expelled from Kosovo and Metohija through the same mechanism that Pristina has been applying over the past two weeks. He is now in central Serbia. Aleksandar is the eleventh Serbian police officer expelled from his own doorstep by the unilateral, illegal, and illegitimate decision of Albin Kurti,” the statement reads.

The Office added that the policy of expelling Serbian police officers from Kosovo continues, violating their fundamental human rights as guaranteed by numerous international conventions, while international missions that are supposed to guarantee the rights of Serbs in Kosovo provide no protection.

“The policy of terror, persecution, and retaliation against the Serbian people in Kosovo and Metohija is the foundation of Albin Kurti’s anti-Serb agenda. In full view of the international community, he is carrying out ethnic cleansing and taking new escalatory steps instead of committing to dialogue and the normalization of relations,” the statement concludes.
