This act of the Serbian state, Haradinaj, has said it is provocation and unconstructive approach to the citizens of the Republic of Kosovo.

Stankovovic is also part of the Kosovo government as deputy minister of the Ministry of Culture and Sports.

Full response:

Serbian state's non-instructive approach to citizens of the Republic of Kosovo continues

Today at the border checkpoint in Merdare, the deputy chairman of the Liberal Party of Kosovo Serbs has been detained, as well as deputy minister at the Ministry of Youth and Sports, Boban Stankovic. It is being held by Serbian police officials for no reason, and based on information we have he is being questioned by Serbian BIA officials.

We invite Serbian authorities to stop such pressure practices against Serbian citizens, who want to build their lives in the Republic of Kosovo. Kosovo is a state of all its citizens and we will not accept that in this form our citizens are feared.
