A police operation has taken place in several towns and cities in Kosovo. The authorities said they were closing down what they call “parallel structures”. This means groups that are not officially recognized by the government.
The raids happened in places like Gracanica, Pristina, and Obilic. Police went to buildings owned by the Serbian government. They also closed an office that collects taxes and a post office. The authorities said these offices were not legitimate.
The head of the internal affairs ministry, Xhelal Svecla, said the police raids are a sign that Serbia‘s influence in Kosovo is coming to an end. He mentioned specific dates: January 12th marks the end of Serbia’s control over certain areas. Local government minister Elbert Krasniqi echoed these words.
The timing of these raids might be related to upcoming elections in Kosovo. These elections will take place soon, and analysts think they could affect the balance of power in the country.
