The Special Representative of the Secretary-General (SRSG) and Head of UNMIK, Caroline Ziadeh, voices concern about recent developments in northern Kosovo, which continue to adversely affect the daily lives and socio-economic rights of the affected communities, including the latest closure of nine Post of Serbia branches in the northern municipalities by authorities in Pristina.

SRSG Ziadeh calls for responsible leadership to maintain the calm and safety and security of all communities. She further reiterates her calls for outstanding issues to be resolved through the EU-facilitated Dialogue and appeals for restraint from taking unilateral actions.

UNMIK will continue its endeavours to strengthen the conditions for prosperity, stability and peace in Kosovo and beyond.
