He has accused Prime Minister Albin Kurti of "a massive attack on Serbian institutions," but has also placed some of the blame on the European Union.

"In Brussels, I was greeted by the news of Kurti's massive attack on Serbian institutions. The violent closure of a large number of our municipalities, social work centers, post offices is taking place... It is clear why Bislimi did not appear in Brussels today. I came with the Belgrade delegation with the aim of resolving the issue of missing persons today, while Kurti and Prishtina "They have chosen the path of violence and unilateral movements. This kind of terror calls into question the dialogue itself. It is clear that Kurti is not the only one to blame for this. The responsibility also lies with the European Union," Petkovic wrote on the X network.

Today, the Minister of Interior, Xhelal Sveçla said that on Wednesday morning, parallel municipalities of Serbia as well as the post office were closed. According to him, the action was carried out in ten municipalities: Lipjan, Obiliq, Prishtina, Fushë Kosovë/Kosovo Polje, Vushtrri, Novobërdë, Kamenicë, Viti, Rahovec, Skenderaj as well as the illegal tax post office, are the locations where parallel municipalities of Serbia were closed. While the Basic Prosecution in Prishtina has announced that it has not authorized the conduct of a control or raid in some locations due to the suspicion that parallel structures exist.
