He said that it was in their interest to prevent riots and provocations and added that no one could forbid Serbian Minister for Kosmet Goran Bogdanovic or State Secretary Oliver Ivanovic to visit their families in Kosovo.

Interim Kosovo PM Hasim Tachi said on Wednesday the Kosovo authorities would not allow Serbian officials to visit Kosovo any more.

Serbian Minister for Kosovo Goran Bogdanovic described that as political provocation an a unilateral move of so-called Kosovo institutions, adding it is high time the EULEX prevented the unreasonable conduct of Pristina.
