The European Union has not issued a formal response to reports suggesting that individuals responsible for the Banjska attack are receiving protection from official Serbian structures. The European Commission’s Press Office has reiterated its concern that Serbia has not yet taken the requisite measures to bring those involved in the northern Kosovo attack in 2023 to justice. Despite this statement, there has been no official reaction from the EU regarding an investigation conducted by Radio Free Europe.
This investigation reportedly identifies two members of the Serbian Gendarmerie who were involved in the security detail for Zvonko Veselinović and Milan Radoičić. The findings, according to the report, are based on photo analysis, open-source intelligence, and public records linking these individuals to a special police unit. In response to these specific allegations, the President of Serbia has denied that any protection is being afforded by members of the structure mentioned in the report.
The lack of a direct official stance from the European Union on the findings of the Radio Free Europe investigation remains notable. The EU’s prior emphasis has been on accountability for the events at Banjska, but the silence on the specific investigative details presents a different dimension to the ongoing diplomatic dialogue.
