Special Police Units out of Jarinje and Brnjak, KFOR Takes Control

Their pull has been made only after the last equivalent truck left with the inscription “welcome to the association of Serb-run municipalities”, where a group of Serb protesters stayed near this truck.

At the border points in Jarinje and Brnjak, KFOR has taken over.

In the early hours of Saturday morning, near these two border points were seen members of the NATO mission in Kosovo, KFOR.

By 9: 00 p.m., one lane of the road in Jarinje had been released by protesters. Then a lane of the road went off to Brnjak.

Kosovo police demanded that a Serbian-language inscription on a truck be removed, in which they said: “Welcome to the Serbian municipalities' association”.

Local Serbs have initially refused to remove the inscription and have been heard cheering, “Serbia, Serbia”, but protesters later removed this truck as well.

After leaving all the trucks, the evacuation of tents where Serb protesters were staying began.

KFOR in a media communiqué has said that, from this weekend to the next two weeks, this mission will be present in this area, in accordance with the agreement reached and with its mandate.

We remember that these two border points have been blocked by local Serbs since 20 September, when the Kosovo government has made a decision to implement the reciprocity measure on license plates registered in Serbia.

But, the delegations of Kosovo and Serbia, with European Union mediation, have reached compliance on September 30th on the issue of plates and the unblocking of the north.

What do you see the deal for extending the situation to the north?

The special police units, located at the joint border crossings in Jarinje and Brnjak, will leave with the barricades, starting from October 2nd, 0800 to 4: 00 p.m. that day. Mission NATO in Kosovo, KFOR, will be engaged at these two points in Jarinje and Brnjak, before the launch of the withdrawal of police officials and barricades, and will remain there for two weeks to ensure security.

From October 4th, it will begin to implement the clinging card regime temporarily, instead of removing vehicle plates registered in Kosovo and Serbia, until a permanent solution is found.

On 21 October, a team consisting of European Union, Pristina and Belgrade officials will begin working to find a permanent solution. Within six months, from the start of the first meeting, the so-called Working Group, will present the findings for a permanent solution to the format of high-level dialogue. /Reporter.net/.
