Hill said that the good news is the fact that, for the most part, the situation is tense.

The number of troops in the north was much higher and has now returned to normal. That's good news. Now what we need to find out is what really happened. I saw Radojchiqi's statement and I don't understand how one can think it's good for Serbia to launch such activities. We need to find out what happened, who has been involved, we need to find responsibilities and make sure that this tragic and dangerous situation doesn't happen again, Hill said.

The path is to return to dialog. I know it's boring, we know which elements are on the table and we have to give Lajcak a chance to finish what started, so that Serbs from Kosovo know what they can do, and that Kosovo has an opportunity for internationalisation. It's all the elements for this. Only the deal has to be concluded”, Hill said, broadcast the Telegragraphy.

American Ambassador, for Euronews.sr, said that as a person who has participated in negotiations, he does not like preconditions, but prefers when people sit at the table and face issues that need to be resolved.

When it comes to measures against Serbia, it is clear that what happened has happened is what Radociq was doing there and why, and the responsibilities [for armed attacks] are called into responsibility. It is necessary to continue this effort when there is crisis, and when there is a replacement of the political process, things are dangerous. We need peace and stability and the best way to go back to dialogue”, he said.

Furthermore, Hill said that the “I see is that Radoic is accused of some serious criminal acts and would say it is up to prosecutors to talk about it. We have a question. How can we prevent this from happening again? How would one think that entering Kosovo's territory, amassing weapons, causing fear in people, by entering the monastery, contributes to peace and stability in this part of the world. We need to know why someone did this”, he said, transmits Telegrafi.

Hill also referred to the issue of responsibility for the events in Banjska.

We need to find out what happened two weeks ago. We want to prevent it from happening again, but first you need to know what happened. It is up to Belgrade to make a serious investigation and find out what was certainly not about peace and stability for Serbia, nor did Serbia and Serbs in Kosovo help in any way, he said.

The ambassador stressed that “something must be done from both sides”.

“E knows it's difficult because of the Association of Serb majority municipalities, but it's a clear way forward. We can discuss what should be left to local citizens, but they should be given the opportunity to control their future. This should be thought in negotiations ) something must be done for both sides”, he said.

The American ambassador added that the negotiation process should continue.

I think that elections in the north should be part of that process, after all, that association should have someone to guide it, you have to have a choice. Attention must be taken to detail for the process to continue, for negotiators to co-operate with interested parties and the world dare not deal with those problems. Russia's brutal aggression against Ukraine is under way and we must deal with this, Kosovo and Serbia, both sides must find a solution that suites them”, he said.
