Tadic calls for "urgent end to conflicts" In a statement for the media, Tadic underscored that escalation of conflicts calls Serbia's national interests into question and noted that it all delays the possibility of reaching a compromise and sustainable solution in Kosovo-Metohija. KFOR and EULEX are bound by international acts to contribute to resolving the situation by their actions, and political leaders of Serbs need to prevent extremists from jeopardizing personal safety of their compatriots and international representatives in Kosovo, Tadic said and noted that only peace, dialogue and resolution of problems are the exit from the current and any other crisis situation. Boris Tadic (Tanjug, file) Constant communication Minister for Kosovo Goran Bogdanovic said on Monday evening in Belgrade that members of the Serbian government held a meeting with President Boris Tadic earlier in the day, dedicated to the incidents in northern Kosovo and Metohija. "The prime minister (Mirko Cvetkovic) and the president are in constant communication with representatives of international missions, and they are attempting to resolve this situation by peaceful means," Bogdnanovic said, according to Tanjug. The minister also put the number of the citizens injured in today's clashes with KFOR at nearly 100. Bogdanovic accused KFOR "and the international community" of being responsible for the current situation in the north of the province, and of demonstrating a clear intention to remove the barricades by force, thus preventing the citizens from expressing their legitimate stance in a peaceful manner. The minister said that the situation in the village of Jagnjenica was tense and uncertain, and that there were indications that it would deteriorate during the night.
