Minister of Foreign Affairs Marko Đurić spoke today with Special Representative of the Secretary General of the United Nations and the Head of UNMIK Caroline Ziadeh about the situation in Kosovo and Metohija and the upcoming regular session of the UN Security Council on the work of UNMIK, which will be held on 30 October.

UN Security Council session opportunity to discuss threat to rights of Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija
Belgrade,
17 October 2024
On that occasion, Đurić emphasised that Serbia sees UNMIK as a key factor for the operation of the international presence in Kosovo and Metohija, and that it supports its continued engagement in an unchanged and undiminished capacity.
He pointed out the importance of a timely, adequate and visible reaction of the UN to numerous incidents, provocations and unilateral acts of Priština which violate UN Security Council Resolution 1244 and endanger the rights and security of Serbs and other non-Albanian population.
As he emphasised, Priština openly rejects international calls to de-escalate the crisis in the north of Kosovo and Metohija, from where Serbs have been emigrating en masse since June 2023.
The Minister noted that the upcoming session of the UN Security Council will be an opportunity to point out the seriousness of the current situation in Kosovo and Metohija and the threat to the rights of Serbs in the province.
