BELGRADE -- The largest unit of the Serbian police (MUP), the Gendarmerie (Žandarmerija) has a new oath, that its members take as they start their service.

The unit's commander, Bratislav Dikić, is its author. Its representatives explain that the oath contains metaphors "in the spirit of Vidovdan" - St. Vitus Day, which was on Thursday marked as the unit's day.
"This is a pure metaphor. We wished to, in the spirit of Vidovdan, return to history and remember the Kosovo heroes, and that day as the day of the Kosovo heroes, and in line with that, it was said, 'either we will win or die'. It has nothing to do with the change of government. Kosovo has always been important to this unit, since it was formed until this day," Gendarmerie PR Stanica Puzović was quoted as saying.
As far as the author of a film about the now disbanded Special Operations Unit (JSO) Filip Švarm is concerned, the oath is a "clumsy attempt at creating unity and solidarity":
"I think this is now an indicator of patriotism, especially in this political moment that has been created in Serbia. In other words, we are patriots, we will never recognize Kosovo, we will stick to the Constitutional preamble and stress the mythical, poetic importance of Kosovo."
However, Milan Antonijević, a lawyer and a human rights activist, was unpleasantly surprised for two reasons: the focus on belonging to and fighting only for the Serb people, and the mentioning of Kosovo as the only thing that matters.
"That is worrying especially when you see that this unit will be deployed also in multi-ethnic areas, that it will come in contact with other nations, that it must function in Serbia such as it is, that Serbia is not only Kosovo. The Constitution speaks about how Serbia is arranged, that there are other nations that live here, and we cannot rely only on that preamble when we are creating an oath for the people who will defend this country in way they should," said Antonijević.
Meanwhile, the Gendarmerie has some 3,000 heavily armed officers in its ranks, who are under effective command of one man. Some 600 of them belong to a special detachment that is in its structure and organization more similar to the military than the police.
The unit was established in 2001, and draws on the tradition of the pre-WW2 Gendarmerie.
Below is the full text of the new Gendarmerie Oath:
Kosovo is my mother My origins are in Kosovo My ancestors come from Kosovo My history is in Kosovo My Serb nation was born in Kosovo My Serbia was created in Kosovo
Without Kosovo, I have no mother Without Kosovo, I have no origins Without Kosovo, I have no ancestors Without Kosovo, I have no history Without Kosovo, my Serb nation does not exist Without Kosovo, my Serbia does not exist
To the Serb people, to my brothers and sisters I vow, before God I will either be victorious, or meet honorable death For my honor For my origins For my family For Serbia.
With faith in God, for the Honorable Cross and Mother Serbia. Long live Serbia!
UFF if it was doing "grobari" or "cigani" maybe is possible drunken hooligans but oath for zhendarmari is beyond believe only this happens in Serbia?

Resolution 1244 is clear:
"4. Confirms that after the withdrawal an agreed number of Yugoslav and Serb military and police personnel will be permitted to return to Kosovo to perform the functions in accordance with annex 2"
According Resolution 1244 - serbian military and police can RETURN to Kosovo. EU and USA blocking this point of resolution - it's illegal.
(Niklot, Poland, 30 June 2012 16:27)
Yep, that's very clear... as you said an "agreed number" can return. Let us know when that number is agreed :)

This is how Scorpions,Serbian Army,Serbian police (MUP), the Gendarmerie (Žandarmerija) were saying oaths in 1989-1999 before they invadead Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosvo and killed, butchered andraped hubdreds of thousands of inocent people....it is so sad its happening again....I thouth more of Serbia but now not any more....from Romanian

@ataman your link confirm what i said the statistic in ottoman empire are based on religion and not in ethnicity. Now serbs prefere to caclculate all orthodox as serbs. But if you prefere this criteria in 1700 the majority was albanian. So what is your point , that aborigene get back united states, greek get back costantinopol, italian get back dalmatia bulgarian get back macedonia and so on? If you think so is better for you go learn this oath.
(dori tirana, 30 June 2012 21:41)
I think you are wrong dear... ataman's point is that the shimpanzees get back all of the above LOL

More total failure from dying Balkan ex-State.
Only hope: oblast of Russia.
No possibility to survive on Balkan.
No friends - no future.
(Adem, 30 June 2012 18:57)
Well,well,well. Kosovo has been under Serbia only in 11-13 Century. Even during this the majority of people was of Albanian origin.
(dori tirana, 30 June 2012 10:20)
It was NOT. Not even during first centuries of Turkish rule. See here.
But the history according Donkey, I mean, Enver Hoxha means that even France had Albanian majority a while ago.
---
The problem with you people is that you mix religion with ethnicity.For you all Orthodox Albanians in North Albania(Kosova) are Serbs. The same story with Greeks, for them all the orthodox Albanians that live in Greece or South Albania are Greeks, all the orthodox Slavs that live in Greece ar Greeks for them. I see a lot of problems for this too fanatic nations in the future. If we agree with this oath Serbia is dead, cause Kosova is under Albanian rule and only an apocaliptic time will change this fact.
(dori tirana, 30 June 2012 10:20)
Yeah, the problem only is that Albanians in Greece identify themself to be Hellenes of Albanian descent and LOATHE Albanians from Albania or Kosovo. Probably for their Donkey Hoxha mentality. Your mentality is 2000 years behind of your neighbors, Albanians of Greece included.
(Ataman, 30 June 2012 18:57)
The oath is boring, the second group of verses is just a repetition and negation of the first group. Redundant, does not add to the meaning of the oath, one can remove all the lines that start with "Without Kosovo.." and nothing would be lost. There is so much else one could have put in place of the second group of verses, a full reference to the Republika Srpska that is ignored in the oath, for example. Krajina.. you have so much to take oaths for, why waste everything on Kosovo, be ambitious people.
(Reader, 30 June 2012 16:30)
Žandarmerija should back to Kosovo - not only North, but whole province.
Resolution 1244 is clear:
"4. Confirms that after the withdrawal an agreed number of Yugoslav and Serb military and police personnel will be permitted to return to Kosovo to perform the functions in accordance with annex 2"
According Resolution 1244 - serbian military and police can RETURN to Kosovo. EU and USA blocking this point of resolution - it's illegal.

(the psycho, 29 June 2012 22:16) … Thats very true if really serbia wants that so let see so now we know both party's are armed lets see mana to mana what will happen since lots of people they want the payback for they lost since albanian really they don't forgive about the lost, most of you know they are known for blood feud ...and hopefully they will get over it booth sides...GOOD LUCK
(justhetruth, 30 June 2012 04:35)
You can all cry all you want..but Serbia is being subjected to further crimes..and the crimes vs its people in its southern territory. i dont expect kenny, bob, and jim to comprehend the historical meaning . But dont ever underestimate the Serbian will. As long as Serbia exists..it will not end its fight. For it is not any of yours to decide the fate of our birth..but rather ours. Stop supporting the terrorists albos and let us hash out our own problems.
(Momcilo, 29 June 2012 23:38) … A big mouth like you and tough man "maybe"why you don't go and try it ...???tough people take action not empty words...oh i forget albos have guns no !!??ncnc... not a same time when terrorist serbs used to kick empty doors even kill animals in there path is not the same anymore as they did in late 90..no!? so things did change ...DUDE

"Without Kosovo, I have no mother
Without Kosovo, I have no origins
Without Kosovo, I have no ancestors
Without Kosovo, I have no history
Without Kosovo, my Serb nation does not exist
Without Kosovo, my Serbia does not exist"
You've been without Kosovo for 13 years.
Hence, Serbia ceased to exist in 1999.
According to this, modern day Serbs are like Zombies. They occupy space with no purpose. They just eat up resources.
With that being said, are there any proud Serbs left?
How can you live with yourselves? Your mother is gone.
Your history is gone. Your everything is gone!
And, there you sit in front of a keyboard, aimlessly, stupidly typing away some nonsense.
If you were a proud and strong Serb you should grow a beard, leave your air-conditioned room somewhere in the evil West, and fly over to N Mitro and sit your fat ass on a log and hold a golden cross.
Maybe, that will bring your mother, history, pride and Serbia back.
Go on, book that ticket. Otherwise, pipe down.
(cry me a river, 30 June 2012 03:43)
This oath is a joke and wrong on so many levels. Serbia is much more than Kosovo. Also, Serbia is more than just ethnic Serbs and not all Serbians believe in a god.More needs to be done to protect Serbians in Kosovo and Bosnia, but this oath is misguided.
(Matt, 30 June 2012 03:38)
This is a "very" special detachment of the Gendarmerie called "Nike". Its very classified and specializes in "hit and run" tactics. Be afraid my friends....be very afraid.
I think it would be better to work on finding a way for both Serbs and Albanians to share Kosovo, they both have a long history there. Because let's face it, Kosovo is, well, Kosovo, and nothing more.
(Ecoman, 30 June 2012 01:42)
Nothing unusual after yesterday's photos from Kosovo and Metohija where Serbs were stripped of t-shirts. Women were stripped by male police officers because they wore red t-shirts with Serbia on it. Pure barbarism in the middle of Europe.
No one freaked out yesterday but today we can see commentaries from around the globe. I have to say though that some names are suspiciously American. Might that just be another paid Albanian-propaganda-warrior on B92?
(J, 30 June 2012 00:39)
Every citizen of Serbia should take this oath. They his nothing to do with hating Albanians. Despite what the Western media tells us Serbia has not forgotten about Kosovo-Metohija nor will it and I would be proud to to take this oath.
(Jovan Z, 30 June 2012 00:21)
Do you know that you sound like a cynical biased journalist?
What makes ME want to vomit is the fact that you come onto a Serbia news channel and repeatedly spread your GARBAGE.
You're a nobody who goes to Pristina to engage in queer sexual acts with homosexual Albanian muslims... do you really think that any of us are ever going to agree with anything you say?
Just face the facts. We'll never get along and we have proof of our heritage/origins in Kosovo and Albanians don't, it's simple.
(Ari Gold, 29 June 2012 22:08)
Do you wrelly think that we cannot take over the northern part of Kosova with force ?? If you think that then you are wrelly wrong!
We will take it and are taking it step by step. The ROSU intervention last year was just to seal the border with Serbia. We have learned from serbian history that you cannot control an people with force with military or police. It gives the opposite efect since the local people get's defensive and then it's impossible to integrate them into the majority sociaty
We are not worried about northern Kosova. It has no way to go since they over there have to follow the law of Kosova. Starting as we know by now with the licence plates. We will integrate that part of Kosova with serbs loyal to Kosova who will build trust among the serbs in that part of the territory. Just like we have done in Gracanica and other parts of Kosova with majority serb population. Step by step they will fully integrate into the Kosovar sociaty. Those who cannot will with time move to Serbia where they can live with their own kind.
Until Serbia get's an chance to attack Kosova with military force then Kosova will have an bigger and stronger army and intellegence. Do not think that Kosova will stay forever with 2500 lightly arme FSK members. So I think Serbia will think twice.
Kosova will stay independent and unite with Albania in EU since borders dosen't matter in EU. The same will happend with Serbia and RS. Everybody get's happy i guess.

This is not only sick, it is ... ; I can't find the right word, it simply make me want to vomit. Serbis is very fast slipping even deeper and deeper into a spiral of dangerous nationalisn, hate, and actually seems to become a threat the peace in general. It is time the Serbs who don't want this garbage finally raise their voice, and prevent that Serbia slips back into its past. Nobody in his right mind will tolerate this kind of BS. All this sounds like the preperations for another war, and in case that happens it will be the end of Serbia.Start fighting against this nightmare which is brewing up.
(Willi Pfaff, 29 June 2012 23:28)
The bad thing is not really the hate towards Albanians hidden behind those verses. We expect that.
What is really horrible is that this sounds as if if was written during the inquisition. All these religious references. So much backwardness. I expect crap like this to be written in Afghanistan not in the middle of Europe. But then again this is Serbia where everything is turned into a myth and shrink-wrapped in religious zealotry. Yea if we sprinkle the words God, cross, and Serbia here and there then everything that's said or done is right. Brainwashing at its best using the fear of eternal damnation. The church signs at the end and then 2 decades later we claim there was no genocide. How can there be, the words god and cross were in the oath and certainly our soldiers ere blessed by a priest.
Serbia never fails to go medieval when least expected.

As long as there are quisling in Belgrade, nothing will ever come of this.
However one thing is clear, if the Albanians suffered defeat last July at the hands of local Serbs in Mitrovica which resulted in a Albanian bandit terrorist being murdered for being a terrorist, the the Genderarmes' would wipe the floor with any Albanian organ extractor.
Take that to the bank.

The oath is boring, the second group of verses is just a repetition and negation of the first group. Redundant, does not add to the meaning of the oath, one can remove all the lines that start with "Without Kosovo.." and nothing would be lost. There is so much else one could have put in place of the second group of verses, a full reference to the Republika Srpska that is ignored in the oath, for example. Krajina.. you have so much to take oaths for, why waste everything on Kosovo, be ambitious people.

UFF if it was doing "grobari" or "cigani" maybe is possible drunken hooligans but oath for zhendarmari is beyond believe only this happens in Serbia?

As long as there are quisling in Belgrade, nothing will ever come of this.
However one thing is clear, if the Albanians suffered defeat last July at the hands of local Serbs in Mitrovica which resulted in a Albanian bandit terrorist being murdered for being a terrorist, the the Genderarmes' would wipe the floor with any Albanian organ extractor.
Take that to the bank.
(Ari Gold, 29 June 2012 22:08)
Every citizen of Serbia should take this oath. They his nothing to do with hating Albanians. Despite what the Western media tells us Serbia has not forgotten about Kosovo-Metohija nor will it and I would be proud to to take this oath.

Do you wrelly think that we cannot take over the northern part of Kosova with force ?? If you think that then you are wrelly wrong!
We will take it and are taking it step by step. The ROSU intervention last year was just to seal the border with Serbia. We have learned from serbian history that you cannot control an people with force with military or police. It gives the opposite efect since the local people get's defensive and then it's impossible to integrate them into the majority sociaty
We are not worried about northern Kosova. It has no way to go since they over there have to follow the law of Kosova. Starting as we know by now with the licence plates. We will integrate that part of Kosova with serbs loyal to Kosova who will build trust among the serbs in that part of the territory. Just like we have done in Gracanica and other parts of Kosova with majority serb population. Step by step they will fully integrate into the Kosovar sociaty. Those who cannot will with time move to Serbia where they can live with their own kind.
Until Serbia get's an chance to attack Kosova with military force then Kosova will have an bigger and stronger army and intellegence. Do not think that Kosova will stay forever with 2500 lightly arme FSK members. So I think Serbia will think twice.
Kosova will stay independent and unite with Albania in EU since borders dosen't matter in EU. The same will happend with Serbia and RS. Everybody get's happy i guess.

This is not only sick, it is ... ; I can't find the right word, it simply make me want to vomit. Serbis is very fast slipping even deeper and deeper into a spiral of dangerous nationalisn, hate, and actually seems to become a threat the peace in general. It is time the Serbs who don't want this garbage finally raise their voice, and prevent that Serbia slips back into its past. Nobody in his right mind will tolerate this kind of BS. All this sounds like the preperations for another war, and in case that happens it will be the end of Serbia.Start fighting against this nightmare which is brewing up.

GREAT!!!!
Congratulations for your new President!
Congratulations for your new Prime Minister!
Congratulations for your new Oath of Gandarmarie!
Next .... Milosevic comes out of the grave and Serbia will go back to 1989.
Enjoy it!!!
(the psycho, 29 June 2012 22:16)
Do you know that you sound like a cynical biased journalist?
What makes ME want to vomit is the fact that you come onto a Serbia news channel and repeatedly spread your GARBAGE.
You're a nobody who goes to Pristina to engage in queer sexual acts with homosexual Albanian muslims... do you really think that any of us are ever going to agree with anything you say?
Just face the facts. We'll never get along and we have proof of our heritage/origins in Kosovo and Albanians don't, it's simple.
The bad thing is not really the hate towards Albanians hidden behind those verses. We expect that.
What is really horrible is that this sounds as if if was written during the inquisition. All these religious references. So much backwardness. I expect crap like this to be written in Afghanistan not in the middle of Europe. But then again this is Serbia where everything is turned into a myth and shrink-wrapped in religious zealotry. Yea if we sprinkle the words God, cross, and Serbia here and there then everything that's said or done is right. Brainwashing at its best using the fear of eternal damnation. The church signs at the end and then 2 decades later we claim there was no genocide. How can there be, the words god and cross were in the oath and certainly our soldiers ere blessed by a priest.
Serbia never fails to go medieval when least expected.

You can all cry all you want..but Serbia is being subjected to further crimes..and the crimes vs its people in its southern territory. i dont expect kenny, bob, and jim to comprehend the historical meaning . But dont ever underestimate the Serbian will. As long as Serbia exists..it will not end its fight. For it is not any of yours to decide the fate of our birth..but rather ours. Stop supporting the terrorists albos and let us hash out our own problems.
(Momcilo, 29 June 2012 23:38)
Nothing unusual after yesterday's photos from Kosovo and Metohija where Serbs were stripped of t-shirts. Women were stripped by male police officers because they wore red t-shirts with Serbia on it. Pure barbarism in the middle of Europe.
No one freaked out yesterday but today we can see commentaries from around the globe. I have to say though that some names are suspiciously American. Might that just be another paid Albanian-propaganda-warrior on B92?
(J, 30 June 2012 00:39)
Well,well,well. Kosovo has been under Serbia only in 11-13 Century. Even during this the majority of people was of Albanian origin. The problem with you people is that you mix religion with ethnicity.For you all Orthodox Albanians in North Albania(Kosova) are Serbs. The same story with Greeks, for them all the orthodox Albanians that live in Greece or South Albania are Greeks, all the orthodox Slavs that live in Greece ar Greeks for them. I see a lot of problems for this too fanatic nations in the future. If we agree with this oath Serbia is dead, cause Kosova is under Albanian rule and only an apocaliptic time will change this fact.
(dori tirana, 30 June 2012 10:20)
This is a "very" special detachment of the Gendarmerie called "Nike". Its very classified and specializes in "hit and run" tactics. Be afraid my friends....be very afraid.
@ataman your link confirm what i said the statistic in ottoman empire are based on religion and not in ethnicity. Now serbs prefere to caclculate all orthodox as serbs. But if you prefere this criteria in 1700 the majority was albanian. So what is your point , that aborigene get back united states, greek get back costantinopol, italian get back dalmatia bulgarian get back macedonia and so on? If you think so is better for you go learn this oath.
(dori tirana, 30 June 2012 21:41)
This oath is a joke and wrong on so many levels. Serbia is much more than Kosovo. Also, Serbia is more than just ethnic Serbs and not all Serbians believe in a god.More needs to be done to protect Serbians in Kosovo and Bosnia, but this oath is misguided.
(Matt, 30 June 2012 03:38)
"Without Kosovo, I have no mother
Without Kosovo, I have no origins
Without Kosovo, I have no ancestors
Without Kosovo, I have no history
Without Kosovo, my Serb nation does not exist
Without Kosovo, my Serbia does not exist"
You've been without Kosovo for 13 years.
Hence, Serbia ceased to exist in 1999.
According to this, modern day Serbs are like Zombies. They occupy space with no purpose. They just eat up resources.
With that being said, are there any proud Serbs left?
How can you live with yourselves? Your mother is gone.
Your history is gone. Your everything is gone!
And, there you sit in front of a keyboard, aimlessly, stupidly typing away some nonsense.
If you were a proud and strong Serb you should grow a beard, leave your air-conditioned room somewhere in the evil West, and fly over to N Mitro and sit your fat ass on a log and hold a golden cross.
Maybe, that will bring your mother, history, pride and Serbia back.
Go on, book that ticket. Otherwise, pipe down.

Žandarmerija should back to Kosovo - not only North, but whole province.
Resolution 1244 is clear:
"4. Confirms that after the withdrawal an agreed number of Yugoslav and Serb military and police personnel will be permitted to return to Kosovo to perform the functions in accordance with annex 2"
According Resolution 1244 - serbian military and police can RETURN to Kosovo. EU and USA blocking this point of resolution - it's illegal.
(Niklot, Poland, 30 June 2012 16:27)
More total failure from dying Balkan ex-State.
Only hope: oblast of Russia.
No possibility to survive on Balkan.
No friends - no future.

(dori tirana, 30 June 2012 10:20)
It was NOT. Not even during first centuries of Turkish rule. See here.
But the history according Donkey, I mean, Enver Hoxha means that even France had Albanian majority a while ago.

Yeah, the problem only is that Albanians in Greece identify themself to be Hellenes of Albanian descent and LOATHE Albanians from Albania or Kosovo. Probably for their Donkey Hoxha mentality. Your mentality is 2000 years behind of your neighbors, Albanians of Greece included.

(justhetruth, 30 June 2012 04:25)
This is how Scorpions,Serbian Army,Serbian police (MUP), the Gendarmerie (Žandarmerija) were saying oaths in 1989-1999 before they invadead Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosvo and killed, butchered andraped hubdreds of thousands of inocent people....it is so sad its happening again....I thouth more of Serbia but now not any more....from Romanian
(MaliMiro, 1 July 2012 16:16)
The oath is boring, the second group of verses is just a repetition and negation of the first group. Redundant, does not add to the meaning of the oath, one can remove all the lines that start with "Without Kosovo.." and nothing would be lost. There is so much else one could have put in place of the second group of verses, a full reference to the Republika Srpska that is ignored in the oath, for example. Krajina.. you have so much to take oaths for, why waste everything on Kosovo, be ambitious people.

(the psycho, 29 June 2012 22:16) … Thats very true if really serbia wants that so let see so now we know both party's are armed lets see mana to mana what will happen since lots of people they want the payback for they lost since albanian really they don't forgive about the lost, most of you know they are known for blood feud ...and hopefully they will get over it booth sides...GOOD LUCK
(justhetruth, 30 June 2012 04:35)
I think it would be better to work on finding a way for both Serbs and Albanians to share Kosovo, they both have a long history there. Because let's face it, Kosovo is, well, Kosovo, and nothing more.
