The site was visited today by Mitrovica Mayor Faton Peci and Deputy Mayor Enis Osmani. The remains of people who went missing during the war are being sought in the area.
In a statement following the visit, Peci described the issue of missing persons and war crimes as one of the deepest wounds that continues to weigh on Kosovar society.
He wrote that, even after more than two decades, Kosovo continues to have open graves, while the wounds inflicted by the war are still bleeding.
Peci criticized Serbia, saying it has not apologized for the crimes committed during the war in Kosovo. According to him, Mitrovica paid the highest price for freedom.
Speaking about northern Kosovo, the Mitrovica mayor said that cemeteries also bear witness to the traces of history and the Albanian presence in these lands.
According to Peci, nothing can conceal the truth, because blood does not disappear and the soil does not allow crime to remain buried.
He also drew attention to the suffering of the relatives of missing persons, who for nearly three decades have lived with waiting, pain, and the search for their loved ones.
Peci stressed that these families still keep alive the hope that one day they will be able to lay flowers on the graves of their relatives.
