Post of Serbia: Raid on closed Post office in Priluzje is a new act of violence and breach of agreements

The raid by Kosovo Police on the closed Post of Serbia facility in Priluzje has an obvious goal, to seize the building, unlawfully appropriate it, and open a Kosovo Post office there, the Post of Serbia stated.

As stated in the announcement, it is a new act of the most brutal violence against Serbian institutions and property, which, in addition to violating agreements reached within the framework of dialogue and hindering the normalization process, represents the gravest violation of basic principles of international law.

"We appeal to all international institutions to firmly condemn and put an end to this new act of violence, which is part of a comprehensive campaign of terror aimed at disrupting life and driving Serbs out of Kosovo through various forms of pressure, threats, and blackmail," the statement said.

The statement recalls that despite ongoing negotiations in Brussels at the time, the Priluzje branch of the Post of Serbia was closed in January of this year by the authorities in Pristina, along with all Serbian Post offices south of the Ibar River.

Today, a Post of Kosovo sign was placed on the building of the post office that had until recently been operating in Priluzje.
