Pristina Says Serbs Should Leave Kosovo Every 90 Days - Serbian Authorities

BELGRADE (Sputnik) - During his talks with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, Kosovar Prime Minister Albin Kurti insisted that Serbs who live in Kosovo should receive temporary entry declarations every 90 days and leave once those expire, the head of Serbia's office for Kosovo and Metohija, Petar Petkovic, said on Friday.

"Kurti said yesterday in Brussels that this document will be valid for 90 days, and what's even worse, he proposed that the Serbs who have been living in Kosovo and Metohija since ancient times, in their homes with their families, on their land, would have to travel outside Kosovo in order to get another declaration for 90 days," Petkovic told a briefing, adding that this proposal is absolutely unacceptable.
On Thursday, Vucic and Kurti met in Brussels to find a solution to the Kosovo issue.

The controversial move pushed Serbs to set up roadblocks. Kosovo authorities eventually decided to postpone implementing the new regulations until September 1, on the condition that the roadblocks are removed.
