This ain’t escalating anything. This is just a government saying that their currency is to be used in their country. The tensions are exclusively from Serbia wich is a Russian sock puppet.
I dont think it’s a good idea to be going against the experts in the US and the EU on this one. Unless you know something that they don’t.
From what I understand, as someone who has never been south of Munich, Northern Kosovo is at a high risk of violence, and there are minorities there that use the dinar, and have grudges against the Kosovo government. Actions that have the risk of angering this minority shouldn’t be taken unanimously. I mean, is it really worth the risk of people dying just to close some black markets in northern Kosovo?
There is a Serbian minority in Kosovo. The fact that Serbia is a russian puppet doesn’t change the fact, that this is increasing tensions with the Serbian minority in Kosovo.
The move is condemmend by both the EU and US, so claiming tensions would exclusively come from Serbia as a Russian puppet doesn’t hold true.
And if you are older than 12 years you know that things can be more complicated than that. Also democracies have instruments to protect minorities from despotic rulings of the majority.
And if you’re even a little older than that, you know about Milošević, and his despotic behavior towards ethnic Albanians in Kosovo (along with his war crimes in Croatia and Bosnia, as well).
So yeah, they’re probably still a little sore with Serbia.
I know about the wars on the Balcans and the many atrocities commited. that’s why it would be sensible to not do such a move unilateraly and deliberately increase ethnic tensions.
But i guess the EU officials are all just serbian puppets or whatever conspiracy people are trying to push here.
I’m not buying into any conspiracies, and I will point out further that Serbia doesn’t even recognize Kosovo as a legitimate nation. So by continuing to push their currency in a sovereign country that uses the Euro, Serbia is continuing to attempt to delegitimize them as a nation.
I don’t know if this is the right move or not by Kosovo, that’s above my pay grade. But there are certainly worse ways for them to assert their independence than insisting on using the nationally adopted currency.
Bro what? Its literally no legal money.
Tensions between Kosovo and Serbia are too high for Kosovo to be escalating like this.

I am all for defending the minority, but in this case they don’t seem to even respect the authority where they live in.
Why is it so hard to just use the local currency?? Have they not heard of money changer??
…I mean, yes, from the Serbian perspective, Kosovo is an illegitimate state. The issue is not logistics, it’s basically civil disobedience.
It is true and if you are a minority you have to get along with the people who rule the country you live in.

I think you dropped your Serbia flag…
