German MEP: EP resolution identifies Serbia responsible for tensions

The resolution really has many more interesting and important elements. It is perhaps the strongest and most crucial resolution the EP has accepted in several years on the issue. It clearly identifies the Serbian responsibility for escalation of tensions”, he wrote on the platform KX.

The attack on the Euro-deputan Banjska has been described as a formidable terrorist attack by well-organised Serbian paramilitaries, RTKlive reports.

Through this resolution, the invitation is extended to European institutions to take restrictive measures against Serbia, if investigations testify to direct connection of Serbia's state with the attack on Banjska, or if Belgrade authorities will not show will for full co-operation in the investigation process.

The European Parliament also calls for imposing sanctions on destabilising actors in northern Kosovo and leaders of key organised crime networks.
