It is the Vetevendosje movement that has called for mobilization, in order to stop President Thaci from discussing the borders in dialogue with Serbia, writes today “Koha Ditore”.

Based on what Thaci has declared so far, “correction” implies the involvement of the entire Presevo Valley within Kosovo's territory, that is, three municipalities: Presevo, Bujanovac and Medvedja. It is a territory of some 1,200 square miles [1,200 sq km].
