Q: It’s reported the police of the temporary institutions in Pristina forcibly raided and controlled institutions of ethnic Serbs in northern Kosovo. The Kosovo police arrested four Serbs and confiscated Serbian currency in the National Bank of Serbia located in northern Kosovo. The situation in the Kosovo region again experienced tension. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić made a strong response in a televised address. What’s your comment?
A: On the Kosovo issue, China respects Serbia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and believes that the security and lawful rights and interests of ethnic Serbs in the Kosovo region should be upheld. Unilateral moves do not help address the issue and disrupt regional security and stability. Relevant parties need to continue practical and constructive dialogue, and actively look for a lasting solution to the Kosovo issue.
