During the night, the placards were pasted at several locations in that town, showing Vucic with a plis (traditional Albanian white cap), and the message reading: "You are not welcome, traitor!"

Besides curses, the placards also note that is the message Serbs in Kosovo-Metohija want to send to the first deputy prime minister that Kosovo-Metohija is "the holy land of the Serbs".

It is yet to be found who stands behind these placards.

Vucic announced that he will visit Kosovo-Metohija on Sunday, May 12, to talk with the Serbs south and north of the Ibar River and their political representatives about the agreement on normalization of relations.

The Serbs in Kosovo-Metohija are opposing the implementation of the deal which was initialed in Brussels on April 19, claiming that it abolishes the institutions of the Republic of Serbia in the province. They are also refusing to accept the integration into the institutions that Kosovo Albanians formed following the unconstitutional secession of Kosovo that Serbia does not recognize.
