Riot police break up Kosovo protest
Thousands of ethnic Albanians demonstrated today in Pristina, protesting against a UN proposal for Kosovo they say doesn’t go far enough in granting the province independence.
Riot police fired tear gas to break up the protest after demonstrators tried to charge a security cordon and head toward a government building. An estimated 3,000 people – many carrying banners reading “No negotiation. Self -determination” – were taking part in the rally on a main street in the Kosovo capital.
