At four out of six border crossings between Serbia and Kosovo on Wednesday, the change of license plates went on normally, while the two in the north were still blocked, and people could pass it only on foot.

For the third day in a row, the situation at the crossings between central Serbia and Kosovo remained the same.

Kosovo special police units are still in the north, and the Serbs from the villages of Leposavic and Zubin Potok are blocking traffic near Jarinje and Brnjak crossings while all traffic is flowing to Merdare, where the police officers remove Serbia’s license plates, putting temporary Kosovo ones.

The people at the crossings were joined by the representatives of the Serbian List party backed by Belgrade Goran Rakic and Igor Simic, but did not give statements to the media.

Kosovo’s local elections are due next month.

In the meantime, the European Union officials called on both sides for restraint.
