KFOR Commander Markus Bentler on Thursday visited the Serb Orthodox monastery of Visoki Decani one hour after President Boris Tadic left. A protest organized over Tadic's visit by ethnic Albanians in the village of Decani was an isolated case and that KFOR was capable of maintaining security in Kosovo, the German general told Tanjug news agency. KFOR commander in Serb monastery "I said this in my New Year message, and I am saying this again now. The situation is peaceful and stable. There are always people in Kosovo who make strong statements, who demonstrate and try to block roads, and compared to the total population, their number is very small," Bentler said. A group of about a hundred ethnic Albanians blocked the road leading from Decani village to the 14th century Serb monastery for several hours on Wednesday, shouting "UCK" (Albanian for the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army, KLA) and "Tadic get out". KFOR's Italian troops who guard the monastery stepped up security due to the protest, reports said.
