EU reiterates disappointment over Serbia’s lack of action in the Banjska case

The European Union continues to demand that those responsible for the attack in Banjska face justice, keeping this issue as an ongoing demand toward Serbia.

In the conclusions of the EU Council, the attack in Banjska is repeatedly condemned, while deep regret is expressed that Serbia has still not taken sufficient measures to bring the perpetrators to justice, and accountability is demanded.

The same position was also reiterated by the European Commission’s Press Office, which expressed regret that Serbia has still not taken the necessary steps to bring to justice those responsible for the attack in northern Kosovo in 2023.

Meanwhile, the EU has not issued a response to the latest information claiming that the people responsible for the attack in Banjska are being protected by official structures in Serbia.

Likewise, there has been no official response to the investigation by Radio Free Europe, which identifies two members of Serbia’s Gendarmerie, mentioned as part of the security detail of Zvonko Veselinoviq and Millan Radoiçiq. This investigation is based on photo analysis, open sources and public traces linking them to the police special unit.

On the other hand, Serbia’s president has rejected claims that they are being protected by members of Serbian state structures, while at the same time saying that Millan Radoiçiq is not a criminal.
