Unfounded claim by Serbian media that Kurti is seeking war

HIBRID

Serbian daily "Alo.rs" published an article yesterday (October 26) claiming that Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti is seeking war.

The article is related to Kurti's statements about an additional deadline for citizens of Serbian nationality in northern Kosovo to re-register their vehicles with RKS license plates, in which Kurti said that there would be no additional deadline, and the Serbian media interpreted it in the title as a call for war.

Parts of the article published on "Alo.rs":

Fake Prime Minister Albin Kurti has said that there will be no additional deadline for citizens of Serbian nationality in northern Kosovo to re-register their vehicles with RKS license plates, reports Ekonomija online.

He called on all citizens of Serbian nationality to use the period until November 1 to re-register their vehicles, adding that "I know that there is also pressure from Belgrade to prevent re-registration."


The Prime Minister of Kosovo called on all citizens of Serbian nationality to use the period until November 1 to re-register their vehicles, demanding its implementation.

The Serbian media interprets such a call in a tendentious way in the headline that Kurti is seeking war, even though his statement does not contain such a claim. (see here and here)

"Instead of October 1, it is November 1, so the last date is October 31 when all citizens of the Republic of Kosovo, who have vehicles with outdated license plates from the Milosevic era, will have the opportunity to convert them to legal license plates."", Said Kurti.


Analyze:

The Serbian daily "Alo.rs" has published an article claiming that Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti is seeking war.

Kurti has not given an additional deadline for citizens of Serbian nationality in northern Kosovo to re-register their vehicles with RKS license plates, which the Serbian media interprets as Kurti seeking war, even though the head of the Kosovo Government does not mention such a thing.

Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info assesses these claims as tendentious and unfounded and classifies them as "misinformation".
