Petkovic: Kurti is trying to prevent the arrival of Serbs from Kosovo to the gathering in Belgrade

The Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, Petar Petkovic, stated that by stopping Serbs at border crossings, Kosovo’s Prime Minister Albin Kurti is brutally trying to prevent the Serbian people from Kosovo from coming to the national gathering in Belgrade.

Petkovic wrote on the social network "X" that this is a coordinated action by Kurti and "blockers."

"A new coordinated action by Kurti and the blockers is once again underway. Since this morning, Kurti has been brutally trying to stop Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija from attending the national gathering in Belgrade. Major problems at all five crossings and numerous buses have been stopped," Petkovic stated.

As he said, they will fight to ensure that everyone who set out will reach Belgrade.

"The strength of the people in defending Serbia cannot be stopped. There will be no surrender," Petkovic wrote.

A large number of Serbs set off for Belgrade today for a gathering called by Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, but some of them were turned back by the Kosovo Police at certain crossings.

Some vehicles were turned back at the Konculj crossing, and at other crossings police were requesting special documentation, while passenger checks lasted longer than usual.
