Serbian Ambassador Marko Đurić
March 26, 2018, is a day Marko Đurić, Serbia’s new ambassador to the United States, will never forget.
On that Monday, Đurić at the time chief negotiator for Serbia’s Office for Kosovo and Metohija was meeting with local Serbs in the town of North Mitrovica when he was violently detained for having crossed into Kosovar territory illegally.
A rather shocking video of the incident, which has been shared on YouTube more than 370,000 times, speaks for itself.
“Authorities were duly notified that I was coming. So was the EU,” Đurić said in a recent phone interview, insisting that Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and his Kosovar counterpart, Hashim Thaçi, specifically discussed the upcoming negotiations over a dinner in Brussels three days before the confrontation took place.
