To promote this escalating situation, Riztuccia thinks Kosovo and Serbia should sit at the negotiating table and find a solution in dialogue.
The “here is not about military solutions, but only political”, he has suggested at a news conference for the Serbian news agency Tanjug.
According to him, Kosovo and Serbia are facing a major diplomatic offensive to calm the situation and turn it into normal.
Asked if you think KFOR should take on a larger role in northern Kosovo, since Serbs do not trust the Kosovo police, KFOR commander said “that the mission's mandate is to ensure that all Kosovo citizens live in peace”.
Riztuccia has been asked whether she is aware of the presence of foreign elements in this crisis, or rather, whether there is knowledge that Russia is trying to exploit the situation in its favour, which it highlighted “that the problem at this stage has more to do with internal dynamics, rather than external factors”.
When there's chaos in the field, there are those who want to take advantage of such a situation, but we're here to avoid such a” scenario, he has suggested.
