Tadic: Terror organizations are trying to affect Kosovo talks

Serbian President Boris Tadic warned KFOR and UNMIK on Thursday that Albanian media in Kosovo may be promoting terror organizations and new threats and intimidation of the Serbs in the province.

He was reacting to a Wednesday night's broadcast by Kosovo's public television of an interview with alleged members of the Albanian National Army (ANA), a group the UN designated to be terrorist.

"It is also an attempt to affect the negotiating process over the future status of Kosovo (...) I believe that the ethnic Albanians do not wish to see the March 17, 2004 incidents repeat again," Tadic said in a statement referring to massive three-day Albanian violence against Kosovo Serbs in March 2004.

During his recent visit to New York, Tadic informed foreign officials about the existence of armed terrorist groups in northern Macedonia.

Meanwhile, Serbia's State Secretary for Kosovo Dusan Prorokovic, said he expected Unmik to react and sanction armed formations in the province.
