Bishop Teodosije of Lipljan with Westerwelle
27/8/2010
In talks with German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle in Gracanica, Bishop Teodosije of Lipljan said that the Serbian Orthodox Church is very concerned about NATO decision to transfer the jurisdiction for the protection of Serbian monasteries in Kosovo from KFOR to the Kosovo Police. Bishop Teodosije said that the Church was also concerned because of the small number of Serbs returning to Kosovo, and because many crimes against Kosovo Serbs, perpetrated since 1999, still remain unresolved. A sentry-post has been placed in the courtyard of the monastery of Gracanica.
A source from the monastery said that this is where the security of the monastery will be, which will be engaged by the Eparchy of Raska and Prizren. Bishop Teodosije had previously stated that the Serbian Orthodox Church cannot trust the Kosovo Police and that it will find a way to guard their buildings in Kosovo that KFOR no longer protects. This week, the Kosovo Police has taken over the protection of the Gracanica Monastery from KFOR.
