Vidovdan, the holiest day for Serbs, turned into a shameful and humiliating event outside the Gračanica monastery. The organizer of a pilgrimage from Belgrade, V. P., was detained by the so-called Kosovo police while leading a group of pilgrims wearing T-shirts with the inscription “United Serbia.” While the police carried out their duties, members of KFOR and the Kosovo Police Inspectorate merely watched, not intervening. The commander of the police station in Gračanica, Bratislav Trajković, refused to provide any information, directing journalists to the media office. This event casts a dark shadow over Vidovdan, which should be a day of pride and remembrance, not fear and repression. Serbian pilgrims, who came to honor their faith and tradition, faced unnecessary and brutal actions. This is not just an attack on individuals but on Serbian identity and freedom of religion in Kosovo. If you think this is normal, think again. Vidovdan is not just a date on the calendar; it is the heart of Serbian history and culture. So, what do you think about this shameful incident? Share your thoughts because silence is not an option.
