CoE condemns desecration of Kosovo church

“Our organization was involved in the restoration because the damaged monuments are part of our common European heritage. The reconstruction was carried out by workers from all ethnic communities living in Kosovo and thus reinforced the sense of common ownership and the prospects for reconciliation,” he added.

“Those resorting to violence are threatening the future of everyone living in Kosovo. A future is more than a status. It is determined by the quality of life, not by the quantity of borders. If the people of Kosovo do not find the strength to free themselves from the grip of ethnic violence and hate, Kosovo will become a prison for the majority and the minorities alike, regardless of what the UN Security Council will eventually decide,” Davis concluded.

The church dedicated to St. John the Forerunner was broken into on Monday. The doors and all windows were broken, walls sprayed with offensive graffiti as well as those glorifying KLA and KPC, while the unidentified hooligans threw garbage all over the church.
