Pristina also condemned "the destruction of Kosovo emblem" and the removal of "the state flag from the Consulate building."

"The attack that took place last weekend on the General Consulate and the destruction of state symbols is an unacceptable act that violates the integrity of the state of Kosovo," said a statement issued by the Kosovo government, and added:

"The Republic of Kosovo is a sovereign state that respects laws and international law and acts responsibly in international relations as an important factor of peace and stability."
