After weeks of growing tensions between Serbia and Kosovo, the Serbian army claims it is at its “highest level of military preparation.”

Asserting that he will “take all steps to protect our people and preserve Serbia,” President Aleksandar Vucic.

The threat-making is louder than ever and comes in response to reports in the media that Pristina is getting ready to launch “an attack” on ethnic Serb districts in north Kosovo.

Regarding the charges, the Pristina administration has remained silent.

However, it has already charged Mr. Vucic with playing “games” to cause a commotion.

The European Union has been making mediation efforts.

The 27-member bloc is urging the leaders of Serbia and Kosovo to “personally contribute to a political settlement” and “utmost caution and urgent action.”

Serbia refuses to acknowledge Kosovo as a sovereign nation.

After a conflict in 1998–1999, Kosovo, which has a predominately ethnic Albanian population, seceded from Serbia.

All parties have been urged to refrain from provocations by NATO, which has peacekeeping forces stationed in Kosovo. The EU has issued a warning that it won’t stand for illegal activity or assaults on EU police.
