“Acts of vandalism or any form of violence are to be condemned. Peaceful protest is normal in any modern, democratic society but the deliberate desecration of cemeteries and religious sites is to be absolutely condemned. EULEX calls on citizens to respect the law and refrain from any violent acts.

EULEX police and prosecutors are closely monitoring the situation and co-ordinating with Kosovo Police and KFOR. EULEX is ready to step in and support the local rule of law institutions, if needed.”
