Mitrovica-safe from who, for who? #2

Three months after the unilateral declaration of independence by the leaders of Kosovo, the areas dominated by ethnic minorities continue to oppose the status. The newly elected government of Serbia has not changed its stance towards what they view as their small province, insisting that it must remain within Serbia.

The potential for violence continues to be a strong possibility. I recently went to Staro Gracko, a Serb enclave, within Kosovo, and neighboring villages to interview people, and heard different fears the people in minority groups have.
