Talks in Brussels Interrupted: Chief Negotiator for Belgrade Walks Out of Missing Persons Commission Meeting

The meeting of the Joint Commission for Missing Persons was scheduled to take place in Brussels as the beginning of implementing agreements from the dialogue. However, as Newsmax Balkans reports, this was deemed "impossible under the current conditions created specifically today by Kurti, clearly with the intention of undermining the Dialogue and agreements on missing persons."

Petkovic is expected to address the public later today directly from Brussels.

Earlier in the day, Petkovic wrote on his social media account on X that a large number of Serbian municipalities, social work centers, and post office branches were being forcibly shut down. He pointed out this as the reason why Besnik Bislimi failed to appear in Brussels today.

"Upon arriving in Brussels, I was met with the news of Kurti’s large-scale attack on Serbian institutions. Together with the Belgrade delegation, I came with the intention of addressing the issue of missing persons today, while Kurti and Pristina chose the path of violence and unilateral actions. Such terror casts doubt on the dialogue itself. It is clear that Kurti alone is not to blame for this. The European Union also bears responsibility!" wrote Petkovic.

As a reminder, the Kosovo police raided the premises of PO Pristina and post offices in Gracanica, as well as in Kosovo Polje, Lipljan, and other locations south of the Ibar River.

Kosovo’s Interior Minister, Xhelal Svecla, confirmed that following the raids by the Kosovo police, Serbian municipalities in Lipljan, Obilic, Pristina, Kosovo Polje, Vucitrn, Novo Brdo, Kamenica, Vitina, Orahovac, and Srbica, as well as post offices and illegal tax offices, have been shut down.

He stated on the occasion, "The era of Serbia's parallel institutions in Kosovo is coming to an end."
