Bulgaria's prime minister condemns Ivanovic murder

Bulgaria's Prime Minister Boyko Borisov has reacted to the murder of Oliver Ivanovic in Mitrovica today.

“Prime Minister Borisov condemned the assassination of the Serbian political leader in Kosovo in a statement spread by the intelligence office near the government Prime Minister Boyko Borisov flatly condemned the murder of the political leader of the civic initiative “Serbia, Democracy, Justice” Oliver Ivanovic.

Any violence is at odds with the values of civilisation and European ambitions of countries from the Western Balkans. I expect political elites and all citizens to be mature and restrained. Rule of the law cannot be questioned, and I believe the blame for this crime will suffer its responsibility. I am convinced that dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina has no alternative and that such acts should not prevent it. I offer my sincere condolences to the family and relatives of Oliver Ivanovic”, Borisov said.
