Statement of the Embassies of France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States

The Embassies of France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States in Pristina condemn the continued use of violence to achieve political goals.  We call for respect for the rule of law, democratic procedures, and international norms.  Political violence is unacceptable, and damages the interests of Kosovo citizens and Kosovo’s international standing.  This benefits no one.  We commend the professionalism of the Kosovo Police and stress the importance of all citizens, regardless of rank or position, abiding by  the law.
