The return of Serbs to Kosovo institutions “is not seen on the horizon”

Still too distant is considered the return of Serbs to Kosovo institutions, especially in current political and field circumstances between Kosovo and Serbia.

A year and a half from departure, the return of Serbs to Kosovo institutions seems slightly possible under current circumstances.

Serbs who left the police uniform, jobs in courts and prosecutors, brought difficulties to the functioning of these institutions in the north.

For government officials, however, recent developments in 2022 created a new moment for positive changes.

The Serbian List officials' drop-out moment has created the space for democratic and comprehensive integration of the Serb community into institutional life in the country. This has been initiated since the oath of mayors in northern municipalities, now continues to jump up with the employment of Serbian citizens, which are hundreds of Sosh who have been employed in the four northern municipalities of”, Dukagjin Arber Vokrri, Deputy Minister for Administration and Local Powers told TV.

For analyst Belgzim Camberi, the return of Serbs to Kosovo institutions can only be done through conversation between the sides.

“They are proving to establish association once and then as a parallel process to the integration of Serbs. . In this little situation, there seems to be hope, to integrate Serbs into the institutions of Kosovo, and this could actually be unblocked, only between the dialogue in Brussels, but the chances are already small, the more that we are getting closer and closer to the elections”, Belgzim Kamberi said from the “Mutiny Cocalari” Institute.

But the opposite is politicalist Fidan Ukaj, who speaks against the practice of political deals.

“I think that it should not be repeated the error that has been, a political agreement to introduce into institutions unverified people who later proved that only for Kosovo institutions have not worked but were the puppetia, the politics of Belgrade and President Vuciq”, Ukaj said.

As a result of the government's opposition to Serbian illegal license plates, the Serbian List made a decision to leave institutions, in addition to the central and local ones, as well as those of rule of law and justice.
