The envoy of the European Union for the Pristina-Belgrade dialogue, Miroslav Lajcak, has reacted through a post on Twitter about the tensions in the north of Kosovo.

His reaction comes after the meetings he had with the Prime Minister of Albania, Edi Rama, as well as with the Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti.

He wrote that in the Western Balkans, and especially in Kosovo, there is a need for an urgent political solution, while he added that the violence shown in the north is totally unacceptable.

Over the last two days, I attended GLOBSEC. During my many meetings and conversations, I discussed the situation in the Western Balkans, in particular the tensions and escalation in the north of Kosovo. We urgently need a political solution. Violence is not acceptable.
