(ANSA) - BELGRADE, 10 APR - The situation in Kosovo is stable and under control, said the KFOR commander, Italian major general Lorenzo D'Addario, who also invited political representatives of the various parties to be careful and show and a sense of responsibility when they make statements. ''My assessment is that the situation is peaceful, however, I think that the rhetoric and certain statements do not help. We need your help to calm the situation. For this reason, we must be extremely cautious when we make statements'', said D'Addario, cited today by the Serbian media. According to D'Addario, it is important to be responsible and ''think about the consequences of what you say''. The KFOR commander, therefore, denied that the presence in northern Kosovo of a Nato military group composed of soldiers from various countries, including the Albanian military, was a provocation, as claimed by some in Serbia. ''The Serbs in northern Kosovo should not feel threatened but safer when we are there'', he said. (ANSA).
