Rada Trajkovic, a prominent Kosovo-Serb politician and fierce critic of Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, was detained by the police at the Serbian border leaving Kosovo. She was recently appointed as an adviser to Nenad Rasic, a Kosovo Serb politician who took the post of the Minister of Communities and Returns in Kosovo. Trajkovic has called for the preservation of the Serbian community’s presence in Kosovo, for coexistence and reconciliation. She accused the Serbian president of trying to threaten her and for “criminal actions” against Kosovo-Serbs. Kosovo’s Prime Minister Albin Kurti condemned Trajkovic’s detention as a “typical retaliation against law-abiding Kosovo-Serbs.”
