Thieves steal returnee's tractor donated by EU

The theft occurred on Sunday night, the office stated, adding that the vehicle was a gift from a European Commission delegation to the Serb refugees returning to Duge Njive.

The tractor was stolen at the height of the spring planting season, which, along with the obstacles placed by the local ethnic Albanians on roads leading to Serb owned fields, threatens the survival of eight returnee families in the village, the statement says.

Returning Serb refugees in Klina have been attacked or pressured several times since the start of the year, which was the reason for Serbia's Minister without Portfolio Aleksandar Vulin's recent visit.

During that visit, Vulin appealed to the international community not to reduce its presence in Kosovo, adding that life would become unbearable for the returnees without international representatives.

Houses belonging to former Serb refugees were set on fire in the villages of Klinavac and Drsnik, two Serb houses were robbed and vandalized in Klina and a cow was stolen from a family with five children in the village of Žac four days earlier.

"The lack of reaction from the authorities in Priština and the international community so far encourages the culprits to repeat their attacks on the Serbs and their property. It is a clear message that the Serbs returning to their abandoned homes are not welcome and that their life will be made unsustainable in any way possible," the Office for Kosovo said.
