Preševo

Ragmi Mustafa told T7 broadcaster that Pristina delegation led by President Hashim Thaci "should take seriously the request of Albanians in Presevo Valley to discuss their matter in Brussels."

This is taking place after Omerovic's alleged involvement in a shoplifting incident at an airport abroad.

Omerovic's resignation as member ("people's deputy") of the Assembly, means he will also be removed from all his other parliamentary roles.

From now on, the state, rather than individuals will be deciding on who to honor with monuments, the daily Vecernje Novosti writes.

Among the memorials that will most likely be removed is a plaque in Novi Pazar dedicated to Acif Efendija, and a memorial to the so-called Liberation Army of Presevo, Bujanovac and Medvedje installed in the town of Presevo.

"Our court's warrant for him is in force and he will certainly be arrested if he is accessible to the police," Stefanovic told Friday's edition of the tabloid Kurir, Beta agency is reporting.

However, Vulin assessed that the silence of the European Union and NATO when it comes to the statements of Ramush Haradinaj and Hashim Thaci was "worrying."

"Of course, Haradinaj, just like Thaci, cannot endanger peace and stability on any centimeter of the territory of the Republic of Serbia, and that is why the Serbian Army exists, anyway," the minister said in a statement.

As some Serbian and Kosovo politicians mull swapping territories between the two countries, members of the the ethnic Albanian minority in southern Serbia say they would rather see both countries inside the EU.

"This is not something new. This is a story that circles both in southern Serbia and Kosovo," Nedzad Beljulji, the owner of TV Spectra in Bujanovac, in southern Serbia, said.

The interview of the Kosovo Parliament Speaker Kadri Veseli given to T7 TV channel has made the head of Serbian Government Office for Kosovo Marko Djuric react, GazetaExpress reports.

He said on Thursday that Kosovo will never be a state, nor will Presheva ever be a part of it.

President of the Municipal Assembly of Bujanovac and National Council of Albanians in Serbia Jonuz Musliu has died.

He died a hospital in Turkey, where he was receiving treatment, RTS is reporting on Thursday, citing FoNet.
