Serb List: Ahead of the vote in the CoE, Kurti's regime is doing everything to justify the support it receives

Ahead of the vote on Kosovo's membership in the Council of Europe, the regime of Kosovo's Prime Minister Albin Kurti is doing everything to prove and justify the support it receives, the Serb List stated, adding that the latest arrests and beatings of Serbs were the freshest examples of how the rights and freedoms of Serbs in Kosovo were respected.

"In that sense, Srecko Sofronijevic was arrested without any evidence, and detention was ordered for him, not for those who almost killed him in 2021, and after that, his phalanx brutally beat Vladan Stevanovic in the village of Bube, in the municipality of Zubin Potok," the Serb List stated.

They add that these are the best and freshest examples of how the rights and freedoms of the Serbian people in Kosovo are respected, while also best illustrating how much international representatives care about the position of the Serbian people.

As they emphasize, to add irony, Kosovo's potential membership under the patronage of mentors of Kosovo's independence would introduce "new values" to the Council of Europe.

"We mean those like the allowed oppression of the Serbian people, arrests and beatings without any basis as regular police work, seizing land from Serbs without any legal process, and abolishing rights to healthcare, food, press, sports, and cultural events for one people in Europe in the 21st century by the regime in Pristina," they state.

As they say, their pleas remain unanswered, which is why Serbs in Kosovo view some international representatives as accomplices in persecution.

"Therefore, unfortunately, our appeals to international representatives and organizations responsible for peace and security in Kosovo and Metohija remain unanswered. Albin Kurti has accustomed them to oppress Serbs as normal, while they have accustomed him to silence and approval. That is why the Serbian people view some international representatives as accomplices in persecution and endangering basic human rights," the statement concludes.
