State Secretary with the Serbian Ministry of Kosovo Oliver Ivanovic said Wednesday that the Kosovo authorities announced ban of Serbian license plates for vehicles in the province is against the agreement reached by Belgrade and Pristina in Brussels.
Ivanovic told Tajnug that the ban on Serbian license plates with the initials of towns in Kosovo is undoubtedly contrary to what the negotiating team presented as the results of the dialogue in Brussels.
Kosovo's Interior Minister Bajram Redzepi said Wednesday that vehicles with new Serbian license plates of Kosovo towns will not be able to enter Kosovo starting April 1.
Starting June 1, vehicles with old Serbian plates with the initials of towns in Kosovo will also be banned from entering, so owners will have to re-register them by this date.
Ivanovic said is he certain "Serbs in northern Kosovo will not agree to take Kosovo documents."
Our Constitution gives Serbs the right to use Serbian documents and have Serbian citizenship in the territory we consider ours, said Ivanovic.
He said the decision is not in accordance with the Ahtisaari plan and the Kosovo Constitution, which is based on the plan.
