UN: Security Council will hold Session on Kosovo and Metohija in New York on Tuesday; it will be attended by Serbian Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremić

"In the report released early November, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon expressed concern over the deterioration of the security situation in Kosovo, stressing that the number of violent incidents affecting Serbs increased after the attempt by Kosovo authorities to assert control at the administrative crossings in north Kosovo. He said that the Kosovo authorities attempted to deploy their unit ROSU at two administrative checkpoints in northern Kosovo, "Gate 1 (Jarinje) and Gate 31 (Brnjak)", adding that this attempt was not coordinated with the international presences. The developments in northern Kosovo during the reporting period serve as a strong reminder that the underlying, unresolved issues constitute a threat to the region's peace and stability. I am concerned not only about the deterioration of the security situation on the ground as a result of the recent developments, but also about the deterioration of inter-ethnic relations throughout Kosovo, the polarization of political positions and the widening of the gap between the communities north and south of the Ibar River, the UN secretary general said.
